其實Cole以前有說過他轉速上升是歸功於Verlander的指導

When I asked Cole last summer about his change in spin rate, he explained
that Verlander had taught him how to get more “true rotation and hop” on
his fastball. He has raised his vertical release point, and the spin axis of
his fastball has changed slightly from 222 degrees in 2017 to 216 degrees
with the Astros.
大致上是說他到太空人隊後 Verlander教他怎樣製造"真正的旋轉和尾勁"
讓Cole調了出手點和轉軸後這才大進化
不知道為什麼這次Cole卻改口了?
