Observation #1: Zack Wheeler is pitching better than ever.
Observation #2: Mickey Callaway’s reputation is that he is a pitching guru.
Therefore, I would expect to see articles/tweets giving Mickey some credit for Wheeler’s success. I am not seeing that.
Isn’t that odd?
So what does that mean.
Does Wheeler’s success have nothing to do with Mickey?
Or…and I am throwing deep here…am I picking up on a little icing of Mickey by the media? And what has Mick done to the media to deserve being iced? Or maybe half the media is gone since the Daily News gave up.
It would be really easy to write a warm and fuzzy article about the reasonably solid starting pitching, especially given the success of JDG and Wheeler. That’s an easy article.
But I don’t see it. That’s odd.
What do you think?
