Jose Molina and Jose Lobaton for president, 2012!
The Jose duo has combined to increase the called strikeout rate of each of the starting pitchers except Jeff Niemann, who has the least innings at 34.2 IP.
Say what you will about Molina's offense (54 wRC+, albeit with a career-low .221 BABIP), but getting more called strikes means quicker ABs and more pitchers counts. This, my friends, has the makings of a successful experiment, say I.
