Tyler Rogers is one of the best relievers on the San Francisco Giants and in all of baseball Major League Baseball with a funky release and break on his pitches that frequently embarrasses professional hitters. It got me thinking... does Tyler Rogers dream of batters hitting themselves with one of his pitches? Does his id delight in such torments?
We know that pitchers can be bullies, control freaks, weirdos, and head cases, but can they be dreamers, too? We know that they thrive on defined roles and heavy preparation to reduce as much uncertainty as possible — this practice is what helps them forget a bad appearance and be fresh for the next one.
