Man, you call me weird? Talk about nitpicking! The comparables between Cy Sale and the Unit are a helluva more prevalent than their differences. Both of these guys deliveries pretty much come from a second baseman angle. No two pitchers throw exactly the same but these two guys are extraordinarily similar in both body frame and delivery point. The Unit threw harder pretty much because he could generate more torque in his pitches because he was four inches taller and had longer and stronger legs.
Sale changes speeds on virtually every pitch he throws and has more movement in his pitches and throws more strikes.
Delivery point isn't the same. The rest you just said says they are different, so basically, they are compared because they are both left handed, lanky power pitchers with a fastball and slider combo.
