Chapter 633 The practice between shooting and arresting

Shen Qin really admires Yuri. He is the real main player. He plays more than 120 games every year. The substitute catcher does not have a fixed partner catcher at all, which leads him to be familiar with not only the 25 players in the team. There are more than a dozen pitchers on the list, as well as various pitchers who are brought up from the minor leagues and traded in 731 for various reasons from time to time, and even the characteristics of the opponent's pitchers have to be taken into consideration.

This workload...

"Am I a little unsuitable to be a catcher? I always feel that I haven't properly communicated with my pitchers yet!"

"I think it's very suitable." Xie Er took another sip, vanilla is king! "However, you usually have too little contact with pitchers in this aspect. You know, you will report early for spring training pitching, and you will often hang out together."

"OK?"

"So you need to develop more relationships and hang out together. Don't you think that when you are a partner, you can get along better with Coach? Others will be strangers, or let's put it this way, when you are partnered with other pitchers, you It will amplify your subjective consciousness to the maximum!"

"It makes sense!" Seeing that the other party's vanilla balls had been eaten, Shen Qin suddenly said, "I really like to eat a flavor, but I don't know what it's called. That's the first one I ate since I can remember. It’s called Thai Miren, it’s a bit gray-purple in color, I ate it last time I came here, but it didn’t taste like that, and Padfoot is also good.”

"But it was so expensive. At that time~ I wanted to eat~ I forgot this time when I went back. There should be Padfoot, and the Thai rice kernels probably really don't exist."

Scherzer obviously didn't expect that the topic would suddenly jump to the sky, and he was stunned before asking: "Thailand Miren, is it Thai ice cream?"

Um? "Probably not?"

"Actually, you can try mint chocolate, it's not bad!"

Shen Qin retched immediately!He really doesn't understand why there is such a flavor of ice cream sold in the United States!He just vomited the first time!At that time, I thought that my psychological effect would be as bearable as durian after eating more, so I tried it again when Coach was eating it, and the result was still sprayed on the spot!Persian cats are scary~
"Let's set up a chat group for pitching and catchers. If you have time, get together more. To be a good catcher, you must be good friends with the pitchers. In high school, the catcher on our team was very shy. People, take your eyes back, 90.00% of your shyness is fake."

Shen Qin pinched his earlobe embarrassedly: "I just don't like talking to strangers."

Scherzer hehehe, he felt that Shen Qin was quite lively, after all, he could directly call nicknames to the opposing pitcher who had just reversed the slam and met for the first time, and he was not too introverted: "In the past, the players in our team The catcher has a small book, and he was still a substitute at that time, and he would record every pitcher's situation on the field, and he would pull the opponent to analyze it as soon as it was over."

"Of course others don't want to. I'm so tired after the game. Who wants to review the schedule right now."

"That kid is shy again, he can't say anything else, he just blocks people with a blushing face."

Shen Qin's eyes widened: "You are so courageous! I can't do it."

"The parents are so cute, others can't refuse, and you don't look at yourself. Of course, I don't want you to use this method. I'm just giving you an example. Communication is very important, and friendship is also very important."

Scherzer said, pointing fingers: "I don't know if you have discovered something very strange. The relationship between the starters is very wonderful."

"Huh? I don't understand. Where is it?" Shen Qin looked at those beautiful eyes with different colors without blinking. He really didn't understand how anyone could laugh at such beautiful eyes.

Scherzer covered his eyes, why is this person so straightforward, can't he learn to cover up?
"Say it?"

"You interrupted! What's the hurry!"

"When did I interrupt you!"

"Don't stare at me! Cough~" Scherzer took another mouthful of soft ice cream and said, "Let's just talk about careers. Every major league team must have some players in their starting shots. On the particularly strong side, look at the St. Louis Cardinals you are most familiar with, among the pitchers and catchers with the closest relationship, no matter how powerful the pitcher is, are they all overwhelmed by Yuri?"

Of course, this doesn't just refer to being on the field. In fact, counting from Yuri to the Cardinals in the past few years, there have been many first-class pitchers, but the Cardinals' head cricket star has always been Yuri.

Scherzer added: "If you look at other teams, can you find a shooting partner who is completely on the same level? The kind that often discusses equality with each other."

Shen Qin thought for a while, there are too few catchers with good offense and defense in the major leagues today. The best defense is undoubtedly Yuri. The best catchers of this century are all from Puerto Rico. It is interesting to say that now The best shortstops come from Puerto Rico.

If we just talk about blows, Posey is really good, but his power has not been as good as before due to injuries in the 18th season. He is indeed the face of the Giants, but his personality is probably a bit cold, handsome and cold. This kind of person, a person who can become the best college catcher in the United States for the first time, is of course a genius.

The team's 5-year and 3-times dynasty was also built on him. The big pitchers, from Linseken to Baumgarner, a super hitter, have rumors and facts of trading and being traded, but Posey does not.

He is the cornerstone of the Giants.

These two are in the National League. Another American League player, Perez, can barely compare with the two, and the Kansas City Royals he played for have no pitchers who jumped out of him.

When it comes to pitchers suppressing catchers, of course there are some, such as Glandau of the Los Angeles Dodgers (here is 18 years, and he has now gone to the Brewers in the National League Central, about 1 year.)
When it comes to the Dodgers in Los Angeles, everyone recognizes that Kershaw is the strongest left-handed pitcher on the surface. He wants to throw the ball on the field. As long as he has confidence and the number of balls is normal, no one dares to call him down. It is obviously impossible or dare not to give a bad face on the court.

Let's talk about the current Astros. Its head catcher McCann is also an experienced big stick catcher, and he is also an absolute gold glove, silver bat level, and has qualifications. (Here is the time point in 18. In 19 years, he has returned to his original team, the Atlanta Warriors. This year, the National League has a big fight. It looks good! Excited!)

But a catcher like McCann will always give people a gentle impression. On the contrary, most of the pitchers in the team are very outstanding. From the old to the rookie, they are all very flamboyant. A catcher's first impression will always be that of a pitcher.

This is what Scherzer meant. Only one party can take the initiative in shooting and arresting! Strong!Nothing to do with friendship!
　Now is the stage of interspersing knowledge points and professional baseball anecdotes~ ouch~
