How injured Angels catcher Logan O’Hoppe’s ‘different perspective’ will help his career
LA TimesThe Angels’ Logan O’Hoppe during the ninth inning against the Yankees on April 18. “It’s like, you take the physical stuff out of the game,” O’Hoppe said. “It could be anything,” Thaiss said, “I’d say 98% of the time about the game, the other 2% it’s just messing around with some stuff.” Added Wallach: “He’ll sometimes give me a, ‘Hey, what would you throw here?’ Or, ‘Hey, this is what I would call, what are your thoughts?’ Even if I would have thrown something different, it’s always more like a ‘OK, tell me why you would throw that?’ And there’s usually a good reason for it. “Every time we progress with something that’s an exercise and I say I’m good to go, there’s no second thought in the back of my head that I’m not ready for it,” O’Hoppe said. “As far as seeing the game from a different lens,” O’Hoppe said, “I think it’s going to be super helpful going forward with game planning and working with pitchers.
