Around SBN: Has Kentucky Improved Since the Non-Conference Season?

Request: Curt Schilling

   Now that he's offically retired, doing a mechanics retro on Curt would be nice, he should probably be a text book example of how RHP should pitch.

 

    His career is interesting.. he was drafted fairly late , his lines in the minors were just decent, with no real flash of what he ended up doing in the majors. his early major career seem to have " career journey man" spelled all over it until he reached Philly...

Chris O'Leary already did one...

It’s his opinion he had a bit of a timing problem getting his pas forearm vertical. O’Leary seems to think a vertical pas forearm needs to be there by footplant and it’s not.

Schilling had shoulder surgeries in 1995 and 99. I’m not sure anyone would consider him to have ideal mechanics, but he did play for a long time. Perhaps there would be some value would be comparing his mechanics over and if the surgeries affected how he threw.
