When I did Washburn, I split up location by count type - that might help make things clearer. You could also look at umpire error to see how many extra calls he's been getting in the windup. You could take a look at where he's been getting hurt and see if that matches. I’m not really sure. When I did Washburn, I split up location by count type – that might help make things clearer.

I think that's actually a good thing, because it's easier to control a fastball, but a 2 seamer doesn't get hit as much as the 4 seamer. I agree with RZ that he's being too fine with the fastball.
