In his prime, Pedro is one of the best ever. His best seasons are arguably better than any other's best. In 2000 he had league leading 11.7 war, 1.74 ERA, 0.73 WHIP, and 11.8 Kper9
Its hard to explain how insane this is to someone who has never pitched before. And its not just that he did it, he did it and STILL threw one of the filthiest change up ever. Its like a QB throwing right handed on one play then switching to left handed on the next and being just as good.
all about his development as he grew up, I'm sure he learned this back in the Dominican Republic. By the time he got to the majors it was just a natural part of his game.
Not true. It would be like a QB putting his fingers on the laces at the bottom of the football. A switch pitcher would be like a QB who throws right handed then throwing left.
He learned the changeup in a ball from his coach. The coach learned it from Mario Soto who is the first player to use the circle changeup Soto has the best circle ever and pedro tied Soto for best ever. Watch Soto in 1982 all star game. He made the American league look like children Soto almost exclusively threw fastball change after he hurt his arm with his slider. Pedro threw 4 seam fastball circle change, spiked dodger curveball, and cutter. No slider for pedro after Soto got hurt on a slider Ps Soto is from Dominican like pedro and Juan marichal
You know Pedro was one of the best pitchers in the game but he had one fault and that was that the Yankees feasted on him and usually when they faced him for the third time
He had a career 3.20 era, 1.04 WHIP and struck out 261 in 216 innings agaisnt the yankees. Those numbers would win you a Cy Young in almost any season. You have a different definition of "Feasted" than everyone else on earth 😂😂.
One of the greatest pitchers ever.
Did not know that he did this. That is awesome.

Pedro is the best man
Clever way to trick opposing teams trying to steal signs.
Pedro, baby. Vertical stripes.

Statistically, prime Pedro was THE best. Just filthy.

Every pitcher gets worse 3rd time through the lineup.

Don't forget his best seasons were during the steroid era too lol
Its like people dont know this is what they taught all dodgers pitchers in the minors, literally called the dodger way of baseball
