It is pretty wild.Wind clearly played a bigger factor than everyone first thought. A lot of those fly ball today went way shorter than the fielder first thought off the bat.

We see it get distances wrong sometimes, but if it was somehow 5 or 10 MPH off on the exit velo? Because 96 EV at 31 degrees averages about 365 feet, which is almost exactly how far that ball went today.

I expect him to be available in a shorter outing. 40 pitches isn't some crazy workload for him. Edited 2 hours ago2 hr by chw42

Because 96 EV at 31 degrees averages about 365 feet, which is almost exactly how far that ball went today.Pitch speeds and EVs are pretty precise, I've never seen either be off after the fact. They are raw measurements.You see distances be wrong sometimes because if Statcast can't fully track the flight path then they fill the gap with a projection based on those raw measurements that make assumptions about the environment that can end up not reflecting the real world (wind, temperature, humidity, etc.).
