In this four-minute clip from the Thompson 2 Clark podcast, hosts Brad Evans and Garrett Gonzales dive into the future of promising San Francisco Giants pitching prospect Carson Whisenhunt. The main topic of conversation centers on Whisenhunt's lack of elite fastball velocity and why that might not be a bad thing for his long-term success with the Giants.
The guys draw a fascinating parallel between Whisenhunt and a Giants legend: Kirk "Woody" Rueter. Rueter, a fan favorite and a mainstay in the Giants rotation for years, wasn't known for overpowering hitters. Instead, he relied on fastball location and off-speed to keep hitters off-balanced.
Do you agree with the Rueter comparison? Or do you think Whisenhunt needs more velocity to succeed in the modern game? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
