4 seam fastballs are only effective if you keep them up in the zone and then every now and then sneak one in down low.

And even with that they had better have 95+ velocity on them.

Fastballs in the main part of the plate area get killed no matter how well you may try to place it.

You also have to change speeds as well. Changing speeds seems to be the kryptonite that gets the batters off balanced. But if you cant keep your breaking ball in the stirke zone you will fall behind in the count.

Very challenging situation from a pitching standpoint.

You have to have flame throwers coming out of your bullpen if you want to consistently close out games.
