I'm sorry but anyone thinking you can pick up spin at this level is easy by simply reading the release angle and hand position hasn't ever seen high level pitching. This is not the 1980's HS with a kid who can't break 82 and has to do something different with his arm to make the ball move. The bulk of these players release at the exact same point, with same hand position, with identical arm slot and body position for all of their pitches. Look at just Landon on fastball and slider, if you are trying to concentrate on hand position to pick up the pitch and not micro-focusing on actual spin, you are absolutely dead at that speed and revs. You won't touch either pitch.

Will Bednar, not as good of an overlay but you get the idea, same arm angle, hand position and release point
