Agreed. I actually think it should be a system-wide deal, get pitchers accustomed to such a pace. As is, batters determine the pitchers rhythm. "Routine" is a word used lots in golf...and with FT shooting. Under pressure, routine is a big deal. Watch what happens when a golfers routine is disrupted, yet we expect pitchers to throw each and every inning with the batter disrupting routine and rhythm.
I think it is a very important thing. The way to make most consistent a routine is to nod and throw.
