Imanaga is the real deal, I watched him a lot with the Baystars. I am so excited that he signed with the Cubs!

[@SetupManCubs]

🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@Nejineto]

That arm side run looks beautiful excited about this guy!!

[@SetupManCubs]

Me too!

[@Yeldineyintun]

It really does look like a good pitch

[@everetttauscher8377]

Thanks for the video Kyle! Imanaga looks great! Hope he has a good season! LET'S GO CUBS!!! ⚾️ ✌️ 💙 🐻

[@babagaming7867]

Wisdom cranked that pitch.

[@jeffhytoff9182]

lol

[@dr05guitar]

that was nice

[@henrymanahan2764]

he sent that over the 101

[@nhs8984]

First mistake I’ve seen him make in all of the live ABs I’ve seen. Can’t hang the breaking ball like that. Looks like a slider?

[@TheLearningCatalystCoach]

Yep, great pitch ID and a hanger from Imanaga. All other pitches I've seen are so diverse, have excellent movement, and placement. It's too bad wisdom can only do that once every 35 ABs, with rare other base hits really.

[@andrewboudreau5279]

I’m so pumped for this team!

[@tomkotter1181]

Enjoyed his arsenal. Mixed it up well and loved high heat. Excited to see Shota with Cubs!

[@SetupManCubs]

Same here!

[@jeffhytoff9182]

Thank you!!

[@sdcubs]

I cannot wait to see Imanaga this season he looks like a fantastic addition 🔥🔥🔥 also Miggy Amaya and Patrick Wisdom have been taking some great at bats!

[@ZZ-by9zk]

Loving the movement on the fastball

[@SetupManCubs]

Yes!

[@rickdde]

ive been dying to see this matchup

[@SetupManCubs]

It was awesome

[@MrCODpwnstar]

gonna need to develop his off speed for right handed hitters. Love that slurve down and in to the low fast ball mix up

[@Teremei]

I think Imanata San is going to surprise a lot of people this year. I'm feeling a big year from him!

[@SetupManCubs]

🙌🏻

[@michaelbingham6907]

Good 1st lookImanaga

[@therealdjway]

That was a 💣from Wisdom. 😳

[@SetupManCubs]

yeah, he got a hold of that one. Hanger

[@Jg_JG]

Godzilla vs monster zero😮

[@stevengarcia1823]

Is this free to the public. What time do you show up to see this.

[@SetupManCubs]

Yes. Tomorrow is the final day. Usually 10 or 11am

[@joepglass]

Wisdom named that one the masterbater.

[@Chi_DBo]

😂😂

[@SetupManCubs]

😂

[@donpthag]

Wisdoms did go far But Amaya hit it harder lol. Shota's movement away and down & in look pretty great. But he's going to give up some bombs

[@SuperSagejin]

This guy didn't watch the whole video

[@SetupManCubs]

Fly ball pitcher, so it will happen

[@donpthag]

@@SuperSagejin comprehension is important

[@donpthag]

@@SetupManCubs yeah hopefully it's under 30

[@SuperSagejin]

@donpthag lol you edited your comment, don't try to be sly about it. It even tells us you edited. For those wondering, the original comment said "What are people talking about wisdoms ball didn't even go far, Amaya hit it harder" Dude clearly watched wisdoms first ab and didn't bother to finish watching the rest of the video where he crushed it.

[@RobertGerman]

Someone has a loud camera

[@rogerosterberger4627]

Daijobu desu.

[@actafool4187]

I see PCA and Amaya STILL can’t hit above AAA. No surprise.

[@SetupManCubs]

Relax, it's spring training. Batters are always behind pitchers
