This offseason has seen the Cincinnati Reds go out and get the pitching. It’s also seen them go out and get the coaches. One of the coaches that the team has added is former big leaguer, and Red, Caleb Cotham. He’s all of 31-years-old, and last pitched in the Major Leagues in 2016. After his playing time he went to work for the Bledsoe Agency as the co-director of player development. One of the things he was at the forefront of is the use of high-speed cameras to help develop pitching. Baseball America wrote about Cotham in May of 2018, as well as how some teams – particularly the Houston Astros, were using high speed cameras in development of pitching.
