Frank Viola, former player and current coach in Atlantic League, believes it will hurt control pitchers. His reasoning, control pitchers start out painting the corners and they get the called strikes. As the game goes on they start throwing slightly off the corners and the umps will usually continue giving them the strike call.
Interesting.
Sorry for double post. Computer froze up.
