The Yankees bullpen is a treat for pitching nerds like me. You want velocity? Oh, we got velocity. How about the hardest-throwing reliever ever, Aroldis Chapman? Oh, you’re into turbo sinkers? Take a gander at Zack Britton, who wields a pitch so nasty he can’t control it.
Ah, I see that doesn’t interest you. A man of a certain taste, eh? No problem. How about a righty with a twisty delivery and a hook so indescribably nasty it has flummoxed hitters for years and lights up Baseball Twitter a few nights a week?
I give you … Adam Ottavino:
