Arizona Diamondbacks pitching coach Brent Strom wants to see some mechanical changes from left-hander Dallas Keuchel.
PHILADELPHIA — Left-hander Dallas Keuchel is scheduled to throw in an Arizona Complex League game on Monday night, his first outing since signing a minor league deal with the Diamondbacks last week. Pitching coach Brent Strom will be following closely.
“I watched him throw the first time without any kind of video,” Strom said. “Then I showed him a lot of things. I showed him a lot of different guys who get into their 30s and how good they move and what they can do. Guys like Cliff Lee and those kind of people. He just got into a few little habits.”
“He’s one of my favorites that I’ve ever had,” Strom said. “I really feel, and I’ve said this before, that he’s probably the prime motivator of guys that turned around the culture in Houston. In ’11, ’12 and ’13, they lose 100-plus and in ’14 he came into his own and got tired of getting beat. Hopefully, he can bring a little attitude to this club.”Keuchel was released by the Chicago White Sox last month after posting a 7.88 ERA through eight starts.
Coming to Citizens Bank Park brings back memories for him. His dad was a member of the Phillies’ coaching staff from 2002-2006, and Daulton, who was born in 1996, remembers running around the home clubhouse and rolling down the ramps in the parking garage while wearing Heelys, the kids’ shoes with wheels.
