There are a great many quotes about hitting a knuckleball. For example Richie Hebner said trying to hit Phil Niekro's knuckler is like trying to eat soup with a fork. The famous Uecker quote wait until it stops rolling and then pick it up but my all time favorite is when Willie Stargell said Throwing a knuckleball for a strike is like throwing a butterfly with hiccups across the street into your neighbor's mailbox. Just brilliant. Lastly on the River Ryan nickname front I would like to submit River of Dreams.
You can tell Waldron feels like he's "resorting" to the knuckleball when he throws it, he's so proud when he gets guys out with the fastball and sweeper and when the knuckleball gets a swing and miss it's like he's depressed. It's just been too good for him not to use it. If he ever becomes "proud" of his knuckleball he might mess around and win a Cy Young.
I was at the Matty Knucks game on Sunday and even though my seats had a side view of the mound and plate I could still see those knuckleballs dancing side to side
River Ryan " Agent Double R 7 " or "Double R 77" (play off on James Bond, double R in his first and last name and double 7's as his number). LOVE THE VIDS NINJA !! BIG FAN
For those not impressed by 15 rpm. That's 15 revolutions per minute, or in other words, one revolution every 4 seconds. Go set a timer for 4 seconds, then start it when he throws the pitch. That's the amount of time for 1 revolution. Crazy stuff.
River Ryan aka The Strid (a dangerous river)? Idk?... but for Carlos Rodon can you Nickname him the negotiator? You've shown a couple clips of him talking the pitching coach into letting him continue to pitch, haha! Salud Will!
Re River Ryan: Given his young age and Ninja's love for puns I'm going with "Old Man River" a quite famous song/ballad during the Negro League days. (Have I sold this one yet?)
I think this is the first Skenes day that he wasn't #1 pitch of the day, and it went to a Padre no less!! Must be cold in hell today but I will always love me some Matty Walnuts

To my manager “I don’t want to be the bulk reliever, I’ll never be seen on Pitching Ninja then.”

Note: Soccer balls do the same thing if kicked with no spin. It's not about the seams.

You could say he put a Hurter on the Royals. I'll see myself out.
