Shane Bieber

He's in that elite step.

What separates the really good ones to the really, really, really good ones?

Yeah, no moment's too big for him.

I think even he would tell you

Or maybe he wouldn't even admit it, but he wasn't going to his liking towards the end of the year, the end of the regular season.

And for him to continue to put the work in, even post-game, after games that he wasn't satisfied with, and during the bye week, to kind of reset himself and to come out in the ALDS and do what he did is very, very special.

I don't know what you call that, what kind of characteristic you would call that, but he has it.

If you want to just call it it, he has it.

And it's special to watch.

And are you glad you don't have to pitch to him?

Very.

Wait, one more thing.

Thank you.

I think I saw him on Twitter before I saw him in person.

It's definitely unique.

I don't know.

I got to ask him when he started to throw like that, if it was on purpose.

But at the same time, I don't really care.

I'm glad he throws like that.

He's nasty.
