Yasuhiko Yabuta Pitch Selection?
Hello folks,

Can anyone please tell me what pitches Yasuhiko Yabuta throws and how fast?

I can't find any videos of him to get an idea of his pitches.

Thanks,

Wizard

He mainly throws the straight, fork, and change up.

Is he mostly limited to a setup role? Or did he serve as a left handed reliever at one point, seeing that his innings have declined in the last few years?

Why would he be a left-handed reliever when he's right-handed?

How hard does he throw? And what is the speed on his fork and change?
