Re: Do you trust your catcher?

I like to figure out what works & doesn't work, on my own. I don't need anyone that hides behind a mask to hold my hand. Did Peyton Manning let his center call the plays? I didn't think so

Re: Do you trust your catcher?

I have an idea of how I want to work a hitter, and I've found that the catcher ends up calling what I'm thinking about 60-70% of the time.

I'll say that I'm probably 65/35% on throwing what my catcher calls. So, yes. Mostly.

When you get to vanilla All-Star, you can still watch the catcher's signs. He'll give you the finger for which pitch to call (1-2-3-4-5). He just stops giving you locations. It's easy to miss, though.

Yeah - had one game tonight where I was like "was thinking that" pretty much through the whole game.

It was kinda creepy, honestly LOL

Trying it out for a game or a few innings and see what you think.
