That's almost an example in the other direction.

So, obviously eye and protecting the plate. That's what separates the high K/high HR guys from TTOs - TTOs basically protect the plate better and perhaps are better at picking up any spin leaving the pitcher's hand. Yet the articles linked above indicated TTOs are fleeting, they tend to not last long. So the next question is how do pitchers adapt? I assume the TTO disappears by not maintaining high BB rates. If so, their K rates increase?
