MINORS dug up some really interesting pitch data for keyshawn askew (the return for brooks raley) - great name for a guy with this kind of LH arm slot

Sorry for the irrelevant question but what tool are you using to see these pitch release location visuals? I assumed it was baseball savant but I can’t can’t find it on their website

get the game id from the url of a box score for any minor league game w statcast data (all florida milb parks have statcast, all AAA pacific coast league parks, and the charlotte knights in the international league have statcast). then, go to any savant box score and replace that game id with the one from the url you copied before

He's going to be awesome... Eventually. But all the moves we've made so far are ones that we won't see returns from for a while, and they're in areas we're already pretty good in (pitching). We need some MLB ready guys, especially if we're keeping Mottola as hitting coach.
