How my anxiety & copying other pitchers SAVED my final MLB season
The story of my stint on the anxiety IL and how watching other pitchers brought me back
My final year in Major League Baseball was a complete disaster after the first 20 games. I couldn't miss a bat, get anyone out, or even clear my head out there. The combination of a new team and new rules took me to a dark place that eventually led me to step away for a while and that turned out to be one of the best baseball decisions I ever made. This is the story of how I turned one of my worst seasons into my best by taking a step back, looking around the league, and stealing the things that were working for those pitchers most like me.
