First pitch cutters to Hart and Weeks was brilliant.
Neither one of them was in the AB once Motte got that first 'offspeed' pitch thrown for a strike.
Like I've said - if he never throws that cutter for a single strike, it's still worth throwing 20% of the time. Weeks and Hart are the kind of guys that can really hurt Motte and he just absolutely mowed through them in large part due to what amounts to a below average cutter.
