Re: Re: Pitching Strategy vs. Certain Hitters

It's highly unlikely you will see rotational hitters.

You will either see uppercutting linear hitters who keep the weight back/collapse the backside(should not be much of a threat) or the usual shoulders level back to front arm hitters.These types typically swing the bat from high outside to low inside and have to hit the inside stuff well out in front.Up and in will be difficult for them unless they step in the bucket.If they step in the bucket,they can't cover outside.Crossing them up out side and in plus some offspeed thrown in should keep the pitchers way ahead.Low and outside is usually a safe pitch,particularly if your defense knows you're going there.It's like shooting fish in a barrel compared to baseball or facing rotational hitters.
