Brandon Williamson twirled a gem against the Marlins tonight.
Absolutely bonkers 64.3% Whiff Rate on 26 changeups, his cutter continues to perform very nicely, and his big breaking balls generate some sneaky whiffs too.
Fun pitcher, glad he’s back.
@RedsInFour@pitchprofiler I’m trying to level up my pitch analysis knowledge. If you had to start from scratch, what would you study first? Stuff+, pitch modeling, movement profiles, tunneling? Any resources you’d recommend?
If Brock Burke isn't going to be an absolute stud this season, everything I know about pitching and pitch analysis is wrong.
Extend him, have a conversation about stretching him out to be a SP. He's my guy this year. Love everything about this.
@StechLuke@pitchprofiler I still think adding his two-seamer back could help him out more than anything.
Especially with how much he struggles against RHHs.
Yes, Graham Ashcraft got absolutely shelled today.
And yes, I’m probably taking some liberties with the re-classifications here.
But it sure looks like he was testing out some different shapes for his sliders against left-handed hitters 👀
Anthony Grant is a GREAT coach, but let’s be honest—his players are TERRIBLE! No heart, no effort, no desire to win. Just embarrassing. Sad! He deserves MUCH better. EXTEND him, but get him players who actually care about WINNING!
