San Diego Padres’ pitcher Dinelson Lamet is an imposing figure. Standing at 6’4″ and weighing around 185lbs, we’re starting to see Lamet throw with a little more confidence than he has in the past. He’s even trying to develop a new pitch to add to his arsenal for the upcoming season.
Some reports have claimed that he’s trying to add a changeup to go along with his fastballs and deadly slider. Others have said it’s a curveball that he’s working on. Either way, another off-speed pitch to keep batters off-balance certainly couldn’t hurt, right?
Although Lamet’s stats at the major league-level are nothing to write home about, his potential has been easy to see.
