Not to hitters just starting out, but I definitely mix in some bad pitches. You can quickly spot kids who are just not picking up the ball. I'll usually do one change up a buckets but usually to the best hitters. Kids need to be aggressive, but if you are willing to swing at garbage pitches a good pitcher and coach will give you plenty of those. I do like to work in some counts to get them thinking when they are up to bat.
I do throw change-ups to her once in a while and once in a while that doesn't start an argument
