Bases Loaded 2 outs. Windup or stretch

Typically with two outs I don't care if the pitcher throws from the stretch or windup. It doesn't bother me if he is out of the windup becuase as long as the inning ends on a put out at 1B, the players secondary at 3B is insignificant. However, when there is speed at 3B you do need to be aware. I'll say this- I definitely prefer the stretch over the windup but if the pitcher is more comfortable out of the windup, I don't fight him.

However, when the bases are loaded with two outs it does bother me when a pitcher goes from the windup. Here's why.

With 2 outs and the bases are loaded, there is a distinct possibility that the count could go 3-2 and then all runners would be moving prior to the pitch. If the runners get a head start when a pitcher throws from the windup, a single could quite easily score 3 runs. Although the count won't always go full- it could. And if it could you need to weigh whether or not you think it's worth having the pitcher throw from the windup.

Again, if the pitcher is considerably more comfortable out of the windup, I'll probably let him throw out of the windup. But, like anything else, the more you know the more educated your decision will be.

This bases loaded, 3-2 count, 2 out scenario can be an absolute merry-go-round if the pitcher is throwing out of the windup.
