Splitting the Change
FishStripes notes that Ricky Nolasco is throwing a split-finger fastball this season. The Marlins want their pitchers to learn a changeup, but this strikes me as the same thing. It looks like a fastball that does something different. Instead of reaching the plate more slowly, it dips. That works for me, and it looks like it works for Nolasco as well.
