What is happening? Welcome to the Plus Bitch Podcast, your morning pitching podcast from PitcherList.com. My name is Nick Pollack. Today is April 1st. And yes, we are going to talk about baseball. I hope you enjoyed Justin Paradis's April Fool's edition of the SP Roundup. Yes, I wrote mine 30 minutes later. Don't worry. I had a really fun time making the Singa Genesis SP Roundup graphic. It's what we do every year. Justin writes a roundup for me and I do his graphic. And then of course we have the normal one as Justin Paradis is so good at doing those SP Roundup graphics for years and years. I am excited to talk today about all the guys that we have like Andrew Painter went last night. Oh my gosh, we got to talk about that. We also have tomorrow's starters and the today's starters and all the guys that you really should be picking up.

I do want to remind everybody that you can get a free month of PL Plus if you leave a review

on iTunes, on Apple iTunes, Apple Podcasts, and you send me an image that you've left that review to

info at picture list.com or you can at me at picture lists on Twitter with that screenshot.

That's all you need to do.

And I will send you a coupon for a free month of PL Plus monthly so you can go check out

the Discord so that you can check out what the site looks like without ads on it. So go and do that right now. Make sure you send it my way. But we gotta talk about Andrew Painter. And he won 5.1 innings of one-er-run four hits, one walking eight strikeouts in his MLB debut. I have to hand to the guy. We've seen a lot of these young arms finally make their first start in rotations out of camp.

We've seen Bubba Chandler do this.

We had that last night.

We'll talk about that.

We have Brandon Spro do it.

And it can be very jittery.

It can be very nervous for these guys.

Even though we know that they have this talent. It's just the first time.

And Painter killed it.

It is, I think the best way I can describe Andrew Painter is a pitcher that we wouldn't care for at 93 miles per hour.

However, he throws 96 plus.

And okay, this is, above average with everything.

There isn't a unreal pitch in his arsenal.

It is a good slider at 88.

It is a 81 mile per hour curve.

They throws for confidence, but, like, is that really that good of a curve at 81? We generally don't see 81 mile per hour curve. They throws for confidence, but like, is that really that good of a curve at 81?
