JTP: Brandon Valenzuela's Future + Nolan Perry & Shane Greene

not making excuses because i just didn't pitch great but you know here i've been a sinker sweeper guy my whole life well my sinker grip there literally cuts because it's like a seam shifted and my sweeper it was still going left but it's like it it's instead of being 20 inches it's 10 inches right

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Brandon Valenzuela's Future + Nolan Perry & Shane Greene
