Big day yesterday and not much going on today. I don’t have much time here but let’s breeze through some stuff.
Grayson Rodriguez actually looked pretty good after a bad first inning. HE went for a 16.9% SwStr%.
He threw 55% of his pitches in the zone. The league average right now is 49%, so that was a huge positive. His stuff is legit, and I think you should start him next time out (and he certainly should not be on waivers right now).
Jesus Luzardo went nuts with 20 whiffs, here’s his season arsenal breakdown:
Mitch Keller also had another nice start, although without a ton of whiffs, here’s his season pitch breakdown:
One more, Pablo Lopez:
Ridiculous stuff no that sweeper. He’s looked phenomenal in his first two starts with the Twinkies.
We don’t have nearly enough data to feel confident about hitters yet, but here are some guys I would be looking to add if available
Spencer Torkelson (81% Cont, 13% K%, 60% hard-hit%)
Logan O’Hoppe (20% Brl%, 21% K%, 2 HR)
Brendan Donovan (44% hard-hit%)
Adam Duvall (believable power output)
David Villar (40% Brl%, but a horrid K% so far - deep leagues only)
Nolan Gorman (going to hit homers, but another high K% guy)
Brian Anderson (solid all around)
Garrett Mitchell (hit a ball 112mph)
Alright now on to the report and the rest of the stuff, it’s still all free!
