22% called strike rate in the first half.

17% called strike rate in the second half.

Did they switch catchers or something? ;)

Endy moved around way too much in the box for sure.

There will be a more formal annoucnement tomorrow in the Rundown, but Nola, WTM, John, and I teamed up with some others to do our own Minor League Guide book for the 2024 season, which released on Amazon today.

Rankings will be a tad different than the list on the site here, since there were a couple more people voting, and it went up to the top 50. A lot of great info, on top of the in-depth scouting reports.

Have a look and grab a copy now! Kindle versions are available as well!

Just read the FG article on the extension, I wonder what Keller's plan to combat his issues against LHH will be?

Expand full comment

If Keller continues with the same overall success, who cares that he struggles more against lefties - he's a RHP and more difficulty with LH hitters is expected.

He’s not been THAT successful tho..

Just start pitching with fear and ignorance per Nuke Laloosh

I'm glad they gave him enough of a leash, and that he's finally become the pitcher they were expecting in 2019. It just goes to show how hard the transition from the minors to MLB can be. Especially for someone like him, who obviously didn't get the support he needed to be successful when NH was the GM. But has thrived under BC.
