What really needs to be analyzed are HR rates, extra base hit rates, maybe even pitcher independent statistics.
I'm curious as to pitcher feedback period in terms of grip.

From a buddy's brother, it's obviously had an impact. They really can't control the ball as well. Curves and sliders have much less bite. 2 seamers have far less movement.

Basically, pitchers can still be just as effective, but it's much harder to be consistent. High end prospects will separate themselves more.
