Is Kyle near the top of the league in inducing weak contact?

Believe he’s top 5-7 in exit velo against. During a VBs game I was watching in the last month or so they flashed the exit velo against leaderboard because Davies was pitching and he’s up there too and I recall seeing Hendricks around #3 at that time.

He's so good at it he somehow gets his own team's batters to do it, too.

Second time thru the Cubs order plates a few runs.

 

Book it!!

You expect Pillar to catch that but Heyward not in second is still annoying

I'll allow it.

Not consistently hitting weak grounders to short is more fun I think

[TMan92]

6 pitch inning, road cobs have infested Wrigley

 

Two balls 107 off the bat. That's OK.

 

Where do you find this info?

 

Statcast website or the feed on the Gameday app.

Almora being sent down brings our 'weak grounders' quotient down quite a bit

Kyle owns Yaz

[badger]

Pretty stress free outing for Kyle so far.

[Brian]

90 pitches, does he bat leading off the inning?

I kind of think Kimbrel will be unavailable for this one, do you go 3 in a row and 4 out of 5 after 2 weeks off?

No way he’s available. I’d assume Ryan, Kintzler or Wick in the 8th and Pedro in the 9th (for reasons)
