Wood's four seam is his mid 90 fastball so if he is working on his two seam fastball it would come in at 87-91 to get it to sink like it should. It the same style of pitching that the Cards teach. Don't throw as hard as you can and take a little off to locate and let the ball sink. Change speed to get your strike outs. Since our new owner is from the Cards he may bring some of their ideas over.
