0:00.0	What is happening? Welcome to the Plus Pitch Podcast. Morning Pitching Podcasts from Pitcherlist.com. sweeper is hard to hit. You have these four seamers that go upstairs.
0:25.5	It was a weird day in Wrigley, and I should say that Immanaga was struggling as well on this one.
0:32.4	He made it work, but it wasn't him normally, sorry, as his normal self. But he did fine. It was like six innings, two and runs against the Dodgers, and we're not really going to talk about him and Naga anymore, because it's fine, guys.
0:38.5	But Dustin May, oh man, Dustin off the cobwebs, not a fun game.
0:42.7	And this ended as five innings, seven earned runs, 10 hits, three walks, 5Ks.
0:48.1	The thing about this one that was so strange was that he threw so many sweepers.
0:52.2	About 50% usage, which is not the life for Dustin May. It should be
0:57.5	tons of sinkers, especially to right-handers, and then against the left-handers, we should see
1:00.9	more of those cutters. We should still see some sinkers. We should see some changes from there,
1:05.0	hopefully. We should see some four-sseaters upstairs, and then some sweepers. And sweepers really against opposite hand batters should not be the play. So this was a weird one. And yes, left-handers is the biggest weakness for a guy like
1:16.3	May who's very sinker heavy. I do think the cutter should get more play moving forward. But then again,
1:20.7	he didn't really have it yesterday. So I understand why he didn't throw it as much as you would
1:24.3	think. The good news, he gets Miami next. And then if it's still the six-man
1:28.5	rotation that the Dodgers have hinted at, it would be Miami again. And he would skip that last
1:33.6	game against Atlanta. So, look, I'm here to hear all your complaints and all the things. Everything
1:39.4	I said, oh, you said, Dustin May is going to be great, blah, blah, blah, blah. I don't throw the ball, okay?
1:45.3	But, come on.
1:47.9	You guys know Dustin May, someone you want to hold on to.
1:49.1	Guys are going to have bad starts.
1:49.8	This was one of them.
1:51.7	It is not a death sentence for the rest of the year.
1:54.8	We just carry on and everything is whatever.
