I understand the logic with the roster changes but disagree with it to an extent...I mean it is realistic to have a 10mph change in your FB to change.

The issue I have is being able to see that from the pitchers hand. The break on a change should be more around arm speed and not far down in the zone it goes. If a player has a 90mph FB and 80mph change with 0 break, I still look foolish when in reality I should be able to see the arm slowing a bit to realize off-speed is coming.
