I agree. Why “tweak” your mechanics. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Part of the high pitch count and 4 walks was a tight strike zone and the Twins did not chase. Lowe had only 1 swing and miss on the day.

In the paper it quoted Low as saying he was going to keep pitching the Twins sinkers until they started hitting them – good plan. I don’t mind no stikeouts if he keeps pitching like that. Lowe has really saved the startering rotation this year.

Someone mentioned the team “tweaked” Masterson’s mechanics this offseason. Why meddle? He was dominant most of last year but this season his command is still on vacation.

Lowe was not sharp yesterday (4 walks, 0 Ks) but the defense played well behind him and he made pitches when he had to, just like the veteran he is supposed to be.

Hopefully Choo and Brantley continue to warm and the offense develops more length and consistency. Sooner or later the Tigers will wake up.

Thanks for the comment.

I think Masterson needs to have a serious discussion with Lowe on how to throw the sinker!
