Just saw the stat on the MASN broadcast tonight. How in the world can that be the case? What does it mean?

In Gausmman's last start, I clearly thought to myself, "He doesn't have an out pitch." So i can kind of see it with him. But Gonzalez is a crafty, control guy. How could people be hitting that high against him on 0-2? I wonder how many at bats it is. If I was the Os and saw that stat, I get the analytics guys to look at pitch selection. They may want to change it.

Your headline says Chen but your text mentions Gonzalez. Need to clarify...

The sample sizes are pretty small here, 41 at-bats for Gonzalez and 20 for Gausman. Hitters are hitting .226 when Gonzalez starts them at 0-2 over 119 at-bats, meaning that in the 78 at-bats where Gonzalez's 0-2 pitch was a ball, hitters recorded hits 11 times for a .141 batting average.

I don't know that it is worth reading much into it. Last year hitters were 6-53 (.113 average) against Gonzalez on 0-2 counts.

      How Many Stick Around to Next Year?

      By Frobby · Posted

      The reality is, we don’t know if they will contribute as much or more than the guys they would replace, or whether they’ll be significant downgrades.  There’s significant risk involved, especially when you’re talking about a team that’s winning with the personnel it already has.  If this was the 2021 offseason, decisions like this would be easy.   That paragraph might sound like I’m advocating standing pat.  I’m not.  I’m just saying these decisions aren’t simple.  Our evaluators have a lot of tricky decisions to make.  I’ll say this: I’m not making any moves yet based on what guys like Beavers, Fabian or Bradfield might do in 2-3 years.  None of those guys have a better than 50/50 chance to be better than our current outfielders at this stage.   Ask me again in a year and maybe I’ll feel differently.

      Cold Bats Heading into the Playoffs

      By Frobby · Posted

      I’m more concerned with the general downturn in the offense in the last few weeks than I am about the Red Sox series in particular.  On the other hand, our pitching has been on fire.  We’ll see how things go.  There’s never any good way to predict what will happen next in baseball.  It’s a streaky game and hot and cold streaks often start and stop for no apparent reason.

      Injuries thread

      By Hallas · Posted

      I think Ojabo is a write-off.  With 2 career-threatening ankle injuries I just don't see how he can come back as a contributor.  The return-to-play rate after and achilles injury is already dicey, and he did make it back, but now to stack another one on top of that...

      The 2023 AFL thread

      By Frobby · Posted

      Just starting a thread to cover the AFL games since the other thread is about who made the roster.   First four games are night games beginning at 9:30 pm ET.  At least, I think it’s 9:30 and not 8:30.   Phoenix is 3 hours behind is right now and the schedule says 6:30 MST.   Phoenix stays on Standard Time in the summer.  Saturday’s game is a day game that I believe starts at 5:30 ET.
