change up questions
#1 . Do you people consider a change up just to be an offspeed fastball? because ive always considered a changeup to be a breaking pitch...atleast if
its a good changeup.
#2. Which breaks more , a circle change up or a palm ball..because ive thrown both and i get more break on a palm ball.

To me a palm ball breaks more, but i dont really know how to throw a circle change the right way.

I consider a changeup, a changeup.
Also I think it depends on the movement, you can't tell because normally people can throw one better than the other, I say whatever your good
at.

it completley depends on the way you throw each one.

yeah, tough to confuse those two, considering a splitter is short for splitfingered fastball. most changeuos should definetly be slower than that.
most changeups i've seen move a tiny bit, but they're generally just like a slow fastball, which is what it's supposed to be.

well................ scientists classify living organisms in to different categories like "plant" and "animal".
well............ us baseball experts classify pitches into two seperate categories "non-breaking pitches" and "breaking
pitches" (how ever i like to use the term breaking ball) change-up is considered to be a non-breaking pitch.
