caulfield12 Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Batters not chasing. Taking apart fastballs and sliders. 106 EV. Another baseball killed by Paredes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn't trust his fastball to get outs...there's trouble here Sheree. Throwing leather all over the field on hard hit balls this inning and still barely in the game at this point.

He's been riding the pine maybe getting drilled on taking more pitches. That particular AB wasn't a good AB to start taking pitches and the one he took for a looking K was 98 on the edge. Still probably not a great idea to put him in against a tough lefty like McClanahan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TA is the exception, seems like it's being exploited more the last two years than I've ever seen all of our "core" hitters are high OSwing% guys, all of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
