We’re excited to welcome Cleveland relief pitcher Nick Wittgren to the podcast. In this episode, Nick discusses his development as a multi-sport athlete from a Northern climate, and reflects on the “why” and “how” of the development of his pitch selection, particularly his changeup. We also touch on the challenges of differentiating between “rested” and “ready”with respect to offseason throwing programs.
