  1. Miguel Sano currently carries a 1.7% soft contact rate. No other hitter in baseball is under 7%, and Miguel Cabrera is the only hitter to post a season under 7% this decade. Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  2. IIRC he didn't get a K in his 1st start either Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  3. I found it interesting that Pirates P Mitch Keller (evokes images of Dazed and Confused, for me) says the organization has set a certain % of pitches that they want to be off-speed in every start for their prospects. Is this common practice? Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  4. Candy is about to Schwarber '15 this team back into beating the horsefeathers out of all who oppose Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  5. I randomly started watching vids of his prime years the other day and he was one of the best I've ever seen at going to the opposite field. He had 1 year where he only pulled 9 HR out of 50. And he was hitting 450 oppo shots with total ease. Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  6. Anybody ready to deal for a pitching prospect? Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  7. Haven't seen such a swift fall from grace since the 07 Bears Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  8. On the bright side, the pitchers that will actually matter to this team at the end of the season did hold the best offense in baseball to 13 runs in essentially 4 games... But my god are the young hitters besides KB disappointing as hell. Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  9. He struck out something like 100 batters in the minors last year as a reliever and walked like 5. Yeah I know he had a massive breakthrough season but this is my first look at him. Repertoire looks an awful lot like Wade's. Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  10. This Holder dude is Wade'ing us. Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  11. Agreed but the bb% drains a slight bit of optimism Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  12. Monty is a beast at stranding runners Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  13. advancements implies that he was bad at it before(I don't think that's the case), but yes, Russell was very good on high fastballs last year, especially in the second half Yeah that's what I'm talking about. He was pretty bad in the first half and then after some tweaks he really turned a corner and was way better in the 2nd handling those pitches. Whatever developments that occurred look to have not stuck. Pitchers are relentlessly attacking him there. Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  14. Didn't Russell make some big advancements last year in hitting the high fastball? Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  15. Ok Rizzo time to wake the F up Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  16. Put the ball in play please Kyle Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  17. Oh horsefeathers, we can do this! Great AB Javy Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  18. Javy, it's time to remember you destroy LHP Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  19. Willson might have earned that strike earlier Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  20. http://www.baseballprospectus.com/sortable/index.php?cid=975507 Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk You're looking at 2011, the Cubs are currently 17th. They were 3rd or 4th when I checked a couple weeks back, which doesn't surprise me since it coincides with the rotation going 5 IP and giving up rockets the first time through the order for 20 straight games. Man my bad wtf Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  21. horsefeathers really? I guess that makes sense. Going from historically great to bottom 5 in def eff helps explain going from best starters ERA in baseball to bottom 5 in baseball. http://www.baseballprospectus.com/sortable/index.php?cid=975507 Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  22. Being bottom 5 in defensive efficiency is mind blowing Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
  23. Nm don't wanna go there Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
