Contenders should want him more than Jose
-
You mean one step forward, two steps back? Came in off a good start and got demolished tonight.
-
Sanchez is such a disappointment defensively.
-
Like I said, he is total garbage from the stretch. Can't pitch in the majors if you can't pitch with anyone on.
-
His stuff is just awful from the stretch. Velocity down, command bad and hanging pitches.
-
Yep would love to see 25/25 from him
-
Nice snag by Timmy
-
Just missed allowing homer to pitcher. Looked like he took some off his fastball...bad idea
-
Almost cleared that wall
-
3 of the 5 walks were four pitch walks, other 2 were five pitch walks according to buddy who's watching. Also said Collins is really struggling behind plate.
-
Due to his size, he seems like someone that needs everything to be in sync to have a chance to be effective. Too early to panic, but if this is going on come August, then panic away.
-
Wow Hansen is broken right now. Hope he finds some sort of rhythm this year, as it's been a lost season up to this point.
-
Notice how much velocity and command falls apart from the stretch? Velocity down 2-3 mph.
-
Not sure spin rate he had a positive fastball pitch value last year. It was 1.0 I think. This year it's almost negative 13.
-
Off topic but I discovered baseball savant game feed. It's fantastic
-
Might have been Jeff Sullivan but within 24 hours of the deal, Bernstein had someone on the radio talking about how bad his fastball spin rate was.
-
Yeah never heard concerns on Lopez and spin rate. There were numerous articles when Eaton trade happened that Giolito might be a bust due to fastball spin rate issues
-
No he was available due to starting/reliever concerns
-
Lopez has positive pitch value on his fastball. It's his changeup that's bad. Giolito might have least effective fastball in baseball based off what I'm seeing on fangraphs.
-
Spin rate was main reason Nats gave up on him
-
He really needs to focus more on the slider. His only pitch with positive value this year. His fastball pitch value is scary bad.
-
You've even said it before, his fastball is just meat due to lack of spin rate. Good hitters will feast on it when it's over the plate. It was less obvious earlier in the year because he was so wild.
-
Hopefully we get to see Davidson tonight. He's far more interesting to watch pitch.
-
Hey but Cooper woke up at least.
-
The fastballs he throws are all meatballs
