Trevor Bauer uncomfortable with changes to delivery

Indians director of player development Ross Atkins said Saturday that pitcher Trevor Bauer isn't yet comfortable with significant changes in his delivery, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

"Trevor has made a significant adjustment in his delivery and he's just not quite there from a comfort zone," Atkins told the Plain Dealer. "It's difficult to change your delivery and compete at a high level, but there are so many things we're encouraged by with him. I think his velocity has been a little bit down because his delivery is a little bit new to him."

Bauer has walked at least three batters in each of his last three starts with Triple-A Columbus to give him an 80:53 K:BB ratio in 96 2/3 innings over 17 Triple-A starts.
