Whose twitter account is that? That's the coolest thing I've ever seen. Where do they get the pitch location and data from? I've always wished MASN showed the box thing for every single pitch. This pitch against Kim wasn't even close and Palmer called it perfect.

Does a similar twitter exist for every MLB team? Who is behind it?

Dunno, Daren Wilman, Dunno. Dunno.

Yes there's one for every team, I don't remember who's behind it. The Effectively Wild podcast interviewed the creator a couple years ago.

Put up many against the Royals. Young and Medlen not good.

Nats went to town yesterday! Young def has not been good but man, they never give up. Still a dangerous ballclub if they figure their pitching out.

Isn't it common knowledge that the strike zone expands on a 3-0 count?

I wasn't in the least bit surprised when that pitch was called a strike.

Anyway in the long run it just meant a few more pitches for Tanaka.

    • Good catch. MLB & BBref list the same slugging percentage, but the backing numbers vary, as does Seamheads. MLB: BBref: Seamheads:
    • Just to clarify, you mean that Kjerstad is under control for four more yesrs than Helsley is, not four more years total.   I’ll say this: our bullpen needs another top quality reliever.   Not just another body.    
    • Agreed.  GRod should have pitched the 7th until someone got on base or if someone had a really long at bat.  Give him 15 pitches to get out of the inning. That said, they lost that game the moment they didn’t score with the bases loaded and no one out.
    • How many times has that been said in the history of baseball?
    • I’m not going to pillory Hyde for his decision.   The top of the order was due up, and they’d seen Grayson three times, so I get it.  And Perez got them out 1-2-3.   However, Grayson was dealing, and the previous run through the top of the order, he’d gone strikeout, strikeout, ground out.  So, I would have liked to challenge Grayson there.  We’ve only had one start where the starter has pitched into the 7th inning in the last 18 games.  I think Grayson was pretty well positioned to do it.   It’s not the end of the world, but I would have made a different decision unless GRod said he was tired.  
    • Giant were wishing for another Mike Yastrzemski maybe
    • It might be nice to see a chain reaction with Beavers to Norfolk, Etzel to Bowie, and Acevedo to Aberdeen.     Aron Estrada put up a 1.000+ OPS in the DSL in 2022 but was injured and so so last year in the FCL.  After an awful start at Delmarva he started to hit but without much power.  Now homers as a LH hitter the last two games.  Sunday a pull shot.  Tonight an oppo.  I’m hoping this is the start of a real breakout.  Not a big guy but well put together.   Sosa, Arias, and Tavera should be fun to watch progress.  Two years ago Estrada was the head of the class.
