Right-hander Cam Walty shut out Arizona last season, the first time that had happened to the Wildcats in four years; now he's pitching for a UA team in need of reliable arms.
Ari Koslow Special to the Arizona Daily Star The biggest priority for Chip Hale and the rest of Arizona’s coaches this offseason was upgrading the pitching staff. The Wildcats ranked sixth in the Pac-12 with a 5.04 team ERA, and they basically ran out of viable arms at the end of a taxing postseason.
Walty was pitching in the Cape Cod League when he made the decision official that he would be transferring to Arizona. In Walty’s start against Arizona last season, he not only threw a complete game but allowed just three hits. One of those hits came from shortstop Nik McClaughry. In the short amount of time they have been working together, Lawn has already helped improve Walty’s pitch arsenal.
“I worked on understanding the type of pitcher I am and just realizing what I bring and the best ways I can maximize my opportunities,” Walty said. “For me, that would be fine-tuning the pitches, understanding my body, learning what body style and kind of what I would need for my own sake to perform the best. Building into coming here, that was one of the main things that pushed that effort because I knew they were going to do that for me.
