Every time they're going to go out there and take them out.

Nobody's going to try something new or do stuff, but everyone's going to try and get better every day.

But every guy has their plans, so I feel comfortable and confident in my plan and what I'm going to go out there and do is going to be pretty consistent from year to year in terms of the baseline stuff.

Some stuff might change to make my overall arsenal or

Baseball Isn’t Boring

pitching better, but it's not going to be some drastic, massive change, at least as of right now that I see it.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Pitch And Moan: Talking White Sox, AL MVP Race And Postseason With Mike Vasil

Yeah, I think, you know, one of the first things that I really liked coming in was that

Baseball Isn’t Boring

They kind of just let me go out there and just pitch at first.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Pitch And Moan: Talking White Sox, AL MVP Race And Postseason With Mike Vasil

It was a very unique situation.

But I think what they did really well is once they –

kind of pointed out my strengths, which kind of followed along with what I knew were my strengths as well.

Like we really rode those the rest of the year, like my sinker or my sweeper or whatever it was.

And in terms of like getting scouting reports and the way I would pitch,

it was really cool to kind of be on the same page as a staff and coaches and everything.

And I think, you know, whenever I needed help, there were certain times throughout the year where, you know, a pitch isn't doing what it's supposed to do or, you know, the grip just feels off.

Like I had resources to go in and look at it and look at the video and kind of figure it out.

And like to be able to go into the field knowing that there's ways to make –
