Another short post today...the following graph depicts the swing and miss rates for batters when they choose to swing at a specific pitch. The pitchers included below are on the Orioles 40 man roster and appeared in an MLB game last year. Each line represents 10% whiff rate.
Maybe a hint at the likely abhorrent k/bb our fringe arms will provide.
ReplyDelete5 bucks says strop has the best k/9 at the end of the year.
kind've surprised britton's 4s/sinker doesn't get more fans, guess it's made for contact though...
whatever, nice research, just depressing how high this rotation's babip will likely be.
