Can't agree more really. Might be weird to throw 4 seamer as an out pitch but you got to reach in to your bag of tricks at some point and sit guys down. The only pitcher who should be throwing the same pitch every single time is RA Dickey.
I agree, though he only has a major league contract because of a 41 yr old pitcher. If we're talking worst player on a major league roster, I think all 29 other teams would get more value from any major league player not named Josh Thole.
