Pinpoint Pitching doesn't seem to be worth the boost in accuracy

Re: Pinpoint Pitching doesn't seem to be worth the boost in accuracy

I could be wrong about this, but it always felt to me like that's how early/late release worked for breaking balls using meter. I'm assuming it's the same here. I'm assuming it's simulating the effect an early/late release has on breaking pitches in real life.

I guess the main thing is that we know early/high and late/low no matter the pitch. I do think you can be right that it would affect the veering of the pitch on breaking balls. It's hard for me to tell. I think the biggest problem for people will be the affect of early release because..well...when you're trying to throw a breaking ball down, and you end up throwing in the wheelhouse, it is frustrating. My first few games I played, I couldn't understand what was causing that to happen. Get that release timing down and really...it doesn't even matter if the theory is true or not.
