A Pitcher's time limit in pitching to a batter doesn't depend solely on the batter but also on when he (the Pitcher in question) has the Baseball in his possession however when he does have the ball in his possession and is on the mound then he has 12 seconds to deliver it to the plate however an exception to this rule is when runners are on base.
Yes, because if there isn't a time limit the roller could just not roll when their winning the game........The time limit is 10 seconds once the batter has stepped in the box and is ready to take the pitch.
There is no official time limit in Major League Baseball. In rare circumstances the umpires may either postpone the rest of the game due to bad weather, or if the game has been played for 5 full innings the team with the highest score wins.
Unlimited, the pitcher can take as long as he wants but its in the pitchers best interest to keep the "momentum" of the game! New York Yankees Management

Yes. However, rules state a pitcher must pitch one complete at bat before being taken out of the game (unless the pitcher gets injured and cannot continue).

What must a baseball pitcher do in order to throw the baseball pitch called the slider?
The slider is a difficult pitch to master. It also requires a developed arm strength. With that in mind, a pitcher must first be willing to practice the pitch many times before its thrown in a real game. Also, because it is hard on the arm, first master the curve ball and the fastball. When all three things are done, a pitcher is ready to use the slider in a real game.

Then the pitcher may be replaced before pitching one full at bat.
