Chris Sale should throw more changeups, maybe

Is White Sox ace having great start to season because of change in pitch selection, or in spite of it?

If you follow me on Twitter you know that I spend every Chris Sale start these days loudly complaining that he doesn't throw enough changeups. Various acquaintances can testify I also do this out loud in person if you give me the opportunity. I don't like this new "pitch-to-contact" version of Sale and I don't think he's making trade-offs in his approach that make him a better pitcher. If the point is to trade K's for getting deeper into games, it's not working.
