I'm not sure why I was itching so badly to send Larry Rothschild a TTM request. I think he's a very good pitching coach, as he's done a good job with a pretty mediocre staff over the past couple of years. He does a nice job of maximizing talent and increasing K rates, which I really hope is the case with Nathan Eovaldi this season. The bullpens have also been very good under his watch, and Joe Girardi's as a whole.
Anyhow, I created this custom card using the Rookies App, as I liked the shot of Rothschild with Tanaka. sure, Rothschild doesn't speak Japanese, but certainly is telling Tanaka 'job well done' with the gesture of a fist bump. As a reminder, I once gave Tino a fist bump.
This only took about nine days to get back, and looks great, although I shouldn't have picked such a dark photo. That's ones on me.
