Are You A Baseball Pitching Coach Looking For Someone To Analyze Data On Your Relief Pitchers?

 Are You A Baseball Pitching Coach Looking For Someone To Analyze Data On Your Relief Pitchers?

Ive tried to contact 2 baseball training centers, and a semi pro baseball manger here in Canada.
I want to interview a pitching coach not just on relief pitcher data--but ask them to go into the process on how they train relievers, scout them, and see where they are best utilized in relief--be it short or long relief, set up man or a closer.
And how do they use that data to best put them in the right role relief wise.
And even how to see potential in players who are not pitchers at all, and have great arms infield position wise--or outfield.
And the best way to utilize that player relief wise.
And do pitching coaches when they want to see a potential reliever in action, do they train them before even using them in a relief role?
How do they do this?
I plan on taking a program in baseball analytics--and want to focus on relief pitchers.
And I'm hoping I can interview a pitching coach from a team in the Inter-County baseball league here in Canada.
Lets see how it goes.

When Does A Starting Pitcher Become Better Off As A reliever?

 I often wonder what percentage of starting pitchers in the NLB become better equipped to be relievers than starters? Andm do even the best starters stay as starters too long, ther by inhuring their rotator cuffs too much, or elbow issues and getting Tommy John like symtoms--there by possibly injuring themselves too much and having to give up pitching all together? ITake a great starter like Max Sherzer or Chris Sale. I don't know what Sherzer is doing win--loss wise this year with the Blue Jays--but I don't think he has been used a lot. I don't know if he has a regular spot in the rotation. Part of me wishes they did not acquire Max. t may be better for a starter like Sherzer to be a reliever. I realize not even starters are cut out to be relievers. I would like to know protocol on taking a starter and putting them in a relief position--be it long relief, short, set up man or closer.  I think it would be an interesting article and educate pitching coaches on how best to kn...

How Is A Bullpen Set Up Strategy Wise And Scouting report Wise?

 Does a bullpen  like a starting pitcher rotation?  Or does a bullpen opertae more on scouting reports of both batters on opposite teams and a particular relief pitchers ability against certain types of batters? I am trying to interview a pitching coach from 3 different sources. MLB, minors and semi pro. But for now I have not been able to land an interview.  And what aspects of a relief pitchers ability pitching type wise, velocity and ability not just to strike out players, but get them to pop out, ground out or strike out more important? I will have more on this later. And hopefully a few questions answered questions on relief pitchinh.

Should Some Pitchers In High School and College Baseball Stick To being Or training As A reliever?

 I jnow it sounds stupid. But why not?  You might be an okay outfielder or infielder at best, but your batting skills and defensive skills were never string for you.  But you have a rocket of an arm. Ask yourself do I want a rubber arm and rotator cuff or Tommy John Surgery like issues be a fireballer?  It can happen and does. Why not practice as a reliever in short or long relief or as a closer.  You may be better suited to it. And you need to still have good defensive skills and know how to pitch with runners on the bases. great throwers don't automatically make great starters.  I would rather see bullpens used more but limited to mainly relievers in long relief or risk using their bullpen too much. I personally like using relief pitchers more than depending on starters going 5 or 7 innings.  Yes, i could be totally wrong. But i want to focus a lot on data analytics for relievers and how they are trained in the bullpen and how intra squad games are u...
