Red Sox prospect Roniel Raudes has bizarre pre-pitch routine (Video)
If Boston Red Sox pitching prospect Roniel Raudes ever makes his way to the major leagues, hitters are going to have to study up to prepare for his insane pre-pitch routine.
MLB reporter Keith Law captured of video of Raudes on the mound in spring training, and it shows the 19-year-old’s incredibly unique delivery. We can’t even describe it, so just have a look for yourself:
From a hitter’s perspective, you basically just have to ignore that first part. The weird ritual comes before the actual wind-up, so it’s not as if the delivery is as deceiving as the one we saw from this MLB reliever last season. Still, Raudes’ little dance maneuver is enough to make you do a double-take.
