This is like a month into the season saying Nolan Gorman just needed a year to figure things out and settle in and now he has arrived.

Again, it's a pitch he's added to his arsenal. It was a centered 4 seamer when the batter was swinging sinker. Saying that's 'just heat' is simply refusing to give credit where it's due. He completely owned Suzuki in that at bat at it was pitch sequencing as much as anything. Suzuki was trying to protect as he has been the whole time, trying to get a piece of a sinker and when the ball didn't dice he swing through it.
It was EXACTLY what I said he was doing now and has been doing since May.
