Michael Busch’s K rate and OBP are getting to be concerning. Dude has a 36% k-rate and a sub .315 OBP…
He’s getting killed whenever he’s chasing pitches out of the zone. He has a 48.6% contact rate on pitches out of the zone that he chases. All his other underlying numbers are solid though.
Yu’s throwing motion looks really weird today. He’s kind of short arming it compared to usual. If they can take a lot of pitches, I think they can get him in trouble because I don’t think he’ll have his usual control.
101 2-seam fastball lol. Palencia should be so much better than he is given his stuff. He just loses his horsefeathers whenever he has runners on base.
