Tigers' Justin Wilson: Wilson aiming to vary his pitch speeds
Wilson is looking to mix in more pitches and vary his speeds more in spring training, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
Analysis:
Last season, Wilson threw a fastball or cutter about 78 percent of the time, and those pitches sat around 95 mph and 91 mph, respectively. Wilson said his goal in spring training is to vary his speeds a bit more by mixing in a slider and a changeup more often. "I'm going in there, and my whole goal is to be a junk pitcher to really get confident in [those offspeed pitches] and use them," he said.
