Francisco Rodriguez bounce or stop?

[stratref]

As far as I watch MLB and its umpiring here is how I understand this.

1) As long as it is what he normally does and is not a change used to deceive someone they normally allow pitcher to get away with it. K-Rod is not the only one to get this "courtesy" I know one of the Mariner relievers does the same thing and doesn't get called, it even gets mentioned once in a while.

2) Early in the season probably not, but after about Mid-May most likely he would as it would be understood by that time it is his normal motion.

3) Unlikely, the balks I see Davidson don't involve not stopping, he calls everything else possible, but unless blatantly horrible I haven't seen him call a borderline "no stop".
