ZOOMLANDER
It has been a week since this article was posted on baseballanalysts.com, but I still wanted to post a link to it here also.
This is the main clip of Justin Verlander and Joel Zumaya:

Here is the link to the full article
In addition to the article, these are some "thinking out loud" notes I typed as I finished the article:
1. There are a lot of conditional words (should, appears, etc.). This is because I have only been able to look at these pitchers from this angle. And again, resources are limited to what I can see on TV. Unless I am in a position to accurately measure movement, I will leave these types of analysis to observation. This is not a controlled environment.
2. This is an interesting topic. I have plenty of other questions I would like to look into involving the potential differences for starters versus relievers in terms of objectives (goal setting) and how those goals are accomplished (movement/mechanics).
3. This is exactly why I returned to school - to put myself in a position to acquire necessary resources and knowledge to further answer these interesting issues...
