One of the beautiful quirks of baseball is how different pitchers can have wildly different windups. The New York Mets have had several pitchers throughout their history who made a name throughout their careers for their unconventional ways of delivering the ball to the plate.
Some fans may wonder why certain pitchers have a smooth, almost effortless delivery, and others go through an elaborate routine that resembles a dance sequence more than a pitching windup. Pitchers are constantly looking for any edge they can get over the hitters they face, and one way to throw hitters off their game is to distract them with an unusual delivery to the plate.
