    That would be the curveball, all of the sliders were 86-89. Spinrate of 3369 RPM, absolutely filthy

    Lebron's whiff problems aren't as bad as Honeycutt's were, and he is also a SS. However, Honeycutt has been abysmal (40% K rate in A+ last year, 50% this year repeating the level), so I wouldn't find solace in Lebron being better than he was.

    My heart wants the ace upside of Flora, but my brain says that a bat is the smarter pick. I'd be happy with any of the top 4, and going with an underslot move that isn't one of them would just be outsmarting ourselves.

    Not sure what else Quick needs to show in Ft Myers. Sinker at 96, Changeup that misses a ton of bats, Curveball at 2800 RPM and missing bats, cutter that looks solid. Making a good argument to be the #2 pitching prospect behind Prielipp, and maybe a T100 guy sometime this year.

    His fastball is hard for guys to hit hard, but it is not a bat-missing pitch. Even without adjusting for a higher AVG than xAVG, his fastball has been more valuable than it was last year. He needs to get either his slider or split-finger back to being a pitch that guys can miss on. Won't be a quick fix, but he looks like a guy who could really benefit from a Sweeper or messing with the Curve to make it a chase pitch rather than sneaking it for strikes.
  19. DataNerd
    Yeah. It's weird to have a guy who is not chasing bad pitches, making a ton of contact when he swings, having high exit velocities but yet still having a bad batted ball profile, but that is where he has been this year. It's a bit impressive to have a 90th% EV at the 99th percentile for AAA hitters and only have a 0.068 ISO

    There is a reason that Bowden isn't working for an MLB team

    Some really good pitching performances. Unfortuately there seems to be a statcast issue, so don't have any data for Prielipp/Rojas/Quick, but based on the results it's looking good. Hill needs to throw strikes. Definitely not giving up on him, but he might be behind Prielipp/Rojas/Quick right now.

    In 25 he threw his change/curve/sinker 21% of the time in MLB and 12% in AAA. It is currently at 35% at AAA. His change is now called a splitter so it may be a different pitch, and it is currently getting 3 inches more armside movement then his change was. Curveball is 4mph slower and is moved to being more of a horizontal pitch, while last year it was mostly vertical movement. The curve is missing more bats, while the splitter seems about the same Not all good news though, the fastball whiff rate went from 24% in AAA to 10%, slider from 40% to 32%. Really needs to get the velo back to where it was.
  25. DataNerd
    He's 24 and in his 3rd season at AA. Hit .212 and .219 his first 2 years
  26. DataNerd
    Between his slider and cutter (which I think both are the same pitch, but MLB list them seperately) Moring got 11 whiffs on 20 swings and 29 pitches. If he can get the fastball up to average 95+, the fastball/slider will play in MLB. He's easily in my top 30

    Nope😉

    Really curious on how hard he is throwing. The sweeper looked like a legit pitch in FM in 24 (2750 RPM, 39% whiff rate) but the fastball was only 92. Didn't have great movement either, but if he can get it up to 96-97 in relief he could be a middle reliever.

    Winokur/Amick/Young, all no.

    Lots to like with some of the new talent, but on the other side I am panic-selling my Quentin Young stock. 15K in 24PA is extremely concerning, and he doesn't have a single game without 2Ks.
