ESPN has a blog post up about Stras, Gio, and the rotation in general, it would appear that the Nats are striking out a whole lot of batters this year...The interesting part of the article is in the explanation of how Gio has improved, in particular his curve ball against right handed hitters is unhittable. Last year opposing righties were hitting .212 against his curve, this year .026! And he is throwing fewer of the pitches for strikes. The chart below shows how he has moved the pitch from the heart of the strike zone to just beyond the lower inside edge of the zone.(Image removed from quote.)http://espn.go.com/blog/statsinfo/post/_/id/44889/nationals-pitching-has-been-more-than-ok
