Tell me about it...it's costing me in the GTG league. Too bad he was a CY young Contender...

He got his first win since June 19 yesterday, and according to the AP, he tweaked his delivery a bit leading up to the game: "Manager Bud Black said Peavy worked with pitching coach Darren Balsley on some mechanical adjustments, and it seemed to work...'He stayed a little taller over the rubber and his arm had a higher slot. That resulted in a better angle and created more of a downhill plane for his pitches,' Black said." Whatever he did, it worked.

Yeah, over the course of a season, I am sure you don't keep the sam mechanics...even hitters get in funks...it's a long season with lots of travel...you may be tired one day and start to develop bad habits.

No doubt, and when it comes to pitching at this level, I'm sure even the smallest change can have a huge impact.
