Sherrill Tinkering With Delivery

George Sherrill is re-working his delivery, aiming to correct mechanical flaws he believes are causing him to lack command and velocity.

"Watching video and making these adjustments seems to have helped a lot," said Sherrill, who has a 5.06 spring ERA with six walks in 5 1/3 innings. "I've gotten a little zip back from the way I've been throwing all spring."

Sherrill said he was turning his landing foot too early and losing torque in his release. The adjustment he made was less of a leg swing as he starts his delivery.

"It still feels a little wierd, because it's just not a habit yet," he said.

I miss Josh Bell.

Oh, and Ken Gurnick, you misspelled "weird".
