Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, and welcome to Jimmy's Three Things. Thank you very
much for joining today. My name is Jimmy. There's three
things in Major League Baseball. I want to talk about
the Chicago White Sox historic losing streak. Got to dive
into that. What's going on? What's going on? Are we
going for history? I hope so. Thing number two? Is
your team better or worse on a specific day of
(00:20):
the week. Is there a team out there that hasn't
won a single game on a specific day of the week. Yes.
Thing number three the best man Fredman pitcher in all
of baseball who isn't good in other innings. So this
is Jimmy's Three Things. It's a production of Dan Patrick Productions,
John Boy Media and Workhouse Media. If you've watched before
(00:42):
and you enjoy like comment, subscribe to the channel that
helps a whole bunch leave comments saying what you want
to hear next time. If you have got any weird
stat area you want me to dive into. For now,
I'm gonna take a stip of my coffee and then
we're gonna begin, all right. The Chicago White Sox have
(01:04):
lost twenty one games in a row. Twenty one games
in a row have been lost by the Chicago White
Sox that tied the AL record. I don't want to
speak out a turn White Sox tie AL record losing streak.
I believe they tied the Baltimore Orioles from nineteen eighty
(01:26):
two nineteen eighty eight. So this is the longest losing
streak in my lifetime. They trail only the Philadelphia Phillies,
who set the modern day National League record after losing
twenty three straight nineteen sixty one. Manager White Sox manager
Pedro Griffall says, we talk about it every day. Shit, man,
(01:52):
I don't know. I feel like, hey, forget that, forget
that and the mounting pressure, forget the streak in the
fuck the streak. Let's just go play for today. I
think that's how I'd approach it. They're in their counting days.
It's twenty one in a row. It sucks. It's not fun,
it's painful. Everybody knows what it is. This is a
(02:16):
Pagrogerfall quote that's got short sentences like a poem. It's
twenty one in a row. It sucks, it's not fun,
it's painful, it hurts. You name it however you want
to describe it. Damn all right. I wanted to dive
into it, so I took the dates of it first.
(02:37):
The losing streak began on July tenth, day two of
a double header, so that kind of screws the numbers
I'm about to look at because I can't say, like
maybe I could do by games and not date. But
day one of the double header they want it. They
beat the Twins three to one. Was that the immaculate
(03:00):
inning save? It was the last time they won. Was
Michael Kopek pitching immaculate inning to get the save. And
since then, it's just been losing over and over and
over again. They lost by one run in the nightcap
of the doubleheader. Then they lost by three runs, then
four runs, then five runs, then six runs, then five,
(03:23):
then three. Then they lost in extra innings by one
another one run loss. So they've been somewhat close losses.
That's good. Then an eight run lost loss one run,
ten runs, three three, three, one, seven. Some close games
in there, some close games. They just can't figure it out.
(03:46):
I went to fangrafts and I punched in the date
July tenth to now White Sox player stats. Let's see
what the starting pitchers have done. Chris Flexen has star
did five games. In those five games, he has a
seven eight three e r A with a six point
fifteen x FIP. It's not good. Let me go standard stats.
(04:12):
See what we're looking at here? So uh, two quality
starts out of the five. How bout it? Twenty earned runs,
three home runs. Chad Cool he oh, Chad Cools pitch
a lot of innings but not started. Garrett Crochet has
started four games, thirteen innings pitched, with six earned runs,
(04:37):
So I should stop toggling around. Crochet has got a
four to one five ERA. That's not bad. Look at
our dude, Eric Fetti, he's throwing pitched three games in
this streak, two nine to three e RA. Look up
(05:00):
his stats. They traded him though, and he threw ooh
not great for the for the Cards, so he was good,
but they lost his games. They lost his last two games,
so they're counting the one game on the doubleheader when
he won. So he's pitched two games. How did they
lose this one? This game? Eric Freddy six point one
(05:21):
two earned runs. That's a winning effort. I mean, you
gotta have an offense, obviously, so that's the one that
went into extras and they lost, went into extra innings
and Brebia blew the save all right, and Feedie got
out of there. They're like, dude, you don't deserve this.
Let's get out of here. Chad Coole had a ton
of Chad Coole has the no Jonathan Cannon has the
(05:43):
most innings pitched three games, starts pitching four games, most
innings pitched three nine to six ARRA. That's not terrible.
Chad Cool is a two seven niney RA no start,
so he's coming in to help it out. Let me
go standard. Who's given up the most runs or earned runs?
(06:05):
Flexen's given up twenty, but he started. Brebbia's given up
eleven runs in this stretch. He's pitched in seven games
of this stretch and given up eleven runs. Seems to
be a problem. Wait, same with Stephen Wilson. Oh so
(06:26):
the bullpen's just awful. Wow, all pitching, no relief pitching,
and damn so if the relief pitching sorted by innings pitched,
Chad Cool been cool about it. Shout out boy genius,
(06:52):
Sammy Peralta, all right, Wilson, Brebia, Jordan Lasier who's what
a terrible tu innings for him? So Brebya's game log's
gotta be god awful. And Wilson they both pitched in
the extra innings loss. That's tough. I'm looking at now.
(07:14):
I'm pulling up John Brebia's game log. Yeah, pretty bad,
pretty bad. Twenty one ERA in his last six games,
he's got what he's got one clean sheet in his
last six appearances. That's not good. Uh. Stephen Wilson, I'm
(07:37):
guessing is gonna be same. That's not good either. Ooh,
Stephen Wilson's last three damn not good? Is he coming
in with wins? Came in up three eighth inning, up
three in this one, gave up three earned runs and
then he's coming in down to down three and then
(07:58):
he passes the baton and their six. Not good, not good.
Let's look at the offense. Tell me there's some dude
hitting well in this stretch. Come on, tell me there's
one dude hitting well in this stretch. Who's got a
good ops. Martin Maldonado five played appearances. Can't sorry, sorry sorry,
machete can't count. It can't count it. Andrew Benintendy seven
(08:23):
sixty eight ops. That's above average. Average OPS right now
is like seven oh five. I think it's really not
good average ops. Let's find it. Let's find it. MLB
Batting twenty twenty four Batting Standard Batting it is. Oh,
(08:46):
it's bumped up to seven twelve. Okay, well that's still
Benintendi's above that, and so is Tommy fam who got
out of there. So Ben and Tendee decent stretched. I mean,
it's it's not amazing because most of the OPS is
coming from slug which I don't like. I don't like
when I think you're on base has to be carrying
(09:09):
some weight. Three zero six on base on its own,
I don't believe is good. It's below average. So his
slugging's above average. But shout out to Ben and Tendi.
I mean, do you think he regrets signing that deal
with all his heart or do you think he's just
like whatever, he has to regret signing that deal has
(09:34):
to so in this stretch, Oh he didn't even dude.
Ben and Tendy had didn't play the doubleheader game they won.
So the last the last twenty three games that Ben
and Tendy played in have been losses. Damn Ben, and
(09:55):
Tenny's played in twenty three straight losses. They had two
wins in between there he didn't play them a couple
of multi hit games. So Benny's all right. Who's got
the most played appearances with the least production Luis Robert
(10:16):
Lennon Sosa? Not good? Oh my goodness, gracious, look at
that slash line for Sosa forty played appearances one O
eight average, one seventy five on base one O eight
slug two eighty three. Oh ps, what how much run
is forty divided by like four ten games? Is he
(10:38):
starting or is he just coming off the bench, because
that's hard to do. Let's see. No, he's starting. Wow,
that's gotta be a tough game. Log one for four,
oh for four, one for four, oh for two with
a walk and a hit by pitch. Nice. Then you
gotta pinch hit strikeout. Damn man, that that's tough. That's
(11:05):
bad if you do value stats. No bat at ball
as anyone having a babbit. Not really, So Benny's doing
all right. And then they traded Fetti and then Chad
(11:26):
Cooles doing his job. Who's pitching for him tonight? Jonathan
Cannon versus chicken strips ross stripling Jonathan Cannon last seven games. Well,
his last game was seven innings pitch one earned run.
That's good. They lost it, though, game before that, six
(11:50):
innings pitch to earn runs. Wait, this guy's been good, obviously,
they're just losing the game games. Jonathan Cannon made his
debut in this season and has a four to eleven
(12:14):
ERA on the year. What's this gonna come down to?
His last six starts three sixty eighty ra. How are
they losing these games? Seven innings, pitch one and run?
How they lose that game? What the fuck? That's such
a winning effort? Who outpitched them? Michael Waka? No, the
(12:35):
bullpenchers came in and blew it. Dude, Damn they've been
in games that stinks. All right, timers up on that topic.
We're gonna move on to the next topic, which is
based team records by split. Is your team good on
certain days and bad on other days? Well, I made
(12:56):
myself a Google sheet algorithm here because some websites have
MLB had it but not all in one spot. And
then I made a little code so if you're looking
at my screen, if you're watching on YouTube, yeah, I
was in the Google sheets today. Basically, what we're looking
at here is if the team is bolded in red,
that means it's a bottom ten team in baseball right now.
(13:17):
If it's bolded in green, that means it's a top
ten team in baseball right now. And then I have
each team's record per day of the week, and then
I have the winning percentage per day of the week
and the difference from their actual winning percentage. So some
things that stand out, right, some of the cooler things
(13:37):
that stand out. The Dodgers are really good on Mondays.
So if I clear this and just go, okay, what's
the best team on a Monday. If you guys want
me to do that first, I'll do that. The Reds
are ten and four on Mondays. The Dodgers are ten
and one on Mondays. They have a nine own winning percentage.
(14:01):
They start their week maybe because they got some older guys,
they got some vets, they're getting good night's sleep. They
take that Sunday day game and they go get a
nice night's sleep. You know, they're not out partying, taking
advantage of the night life. They're just hanging with their families.
Remember all of the Dodgers were on paternity to leave
a couple two seasons ago. Remembers like all twelve of
(14:23):
them had kids. So they're taking their Sunday nights. That's
family time. They're regrouping, regenerating. This is fan fiction what
I'm doing. No stats involved, just fan fiction based on
this number nine O nine winning percentage on Mondays after
the Dodgers go spend times with their loved ones. Good
for them, congrats. That's better than their season win percentage
of five eighty four. It's a three hundred and twenty
(14:45):
five percent difference in winning percentage. The Reds are also
good on Mondays. They're ten to four. The worst team
on Mondays, Oh no, it's the Chicago White Sox. They've
yet to win a game on a Monday. They take
that Sunday Day game, they go great, lots of time
(15:08):
to forget about this fucking season. I'm gonna go have fun.
Wake up Monday a little tired again. This is fan
fiction that I'm making up. It's I don't know if
this is real or not. I'm just projecting cool storylines.
What is real is they're awful. They have not won
a game on a Monday yet. How is that possible?
(15:31):
Has any team gone a full season just never winning
on a day of the week, And like, let's double
check the work here MLB calendar, White Sox should be
easy to see this the way they lay it out schedule,
because they have like the calendar schedule. Okay, so yeah,
(15:53):
they lost to the A's yesterday, so they had a chance.
In July Monday lost to the Twins. Homer and Derby
lost to the Rangers, lost to the Royals, yes, okay.
In June lost to the Dodgers obviously, obviously the Dodgers
are also On Mondays, lost to the Mariners and in
May lost to the Rays, postponed Nationals game got postponed,
(16:18):
lost to the Blue Jays, lost to the Blue Jays,
and in April lost to the Braves, lost of the Guardians,
lost to the Royals, lost of the Twins, lost of
the Twins. So it's real, guys, hate to break it
to you, it's real. They have not won. Who do
they got coming up? Who they got coming up? Yes, Yankees.
(16:39):
I'm a Yankees fan if you didn't know, So that's
exciting for me. Great, that's great news. Don't blow it, Yanks.
This team stinks On Mondays Capitalize, then the Giants, then
the Tigers, then the Orioles, Guardians, Angels. So all right,
(17:00):
so stink on Mondays have not won a game. Someone
needs to find it better than me. I don't know
how to do it. Across all seasons of all years.
Has a team ever not won on a single day
for the whole season, Because if that's never happened, and
the White Sox break that, that's cool. Just Mondays bad day.
That's a bad day, all right, other things that are cool.
(17:23):
Let's just go by I'll go by day for those
very curious. We'll go to Tuesday next and I'll just
do like the best and worst real quick for you guys.
The best team you got the Cleveland Guardians and the
Arizona Diamondbacks, both thirteen and four on Tuesdays. The Dodgers
have also won thirteen games on Tuesday, but they've had
five losses, so there's that. And then the worst team
(17:47):
of the Rockies, the Nationals and the White Sox. The
Rockies are three and fourteen on Tuesdays. You're always going
to have a game on a Tuesday. If you guys
don't know how MLB schedule works. Every team plays every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday,
and Wednesday. Yeah, very You might have a Wednesday off
(18:09):
day if you have a Monday Tuesday two game set,
Wednesday off day and then a four game Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
But that's kind of getting more and more rare. But
a Tuesday off day is very rare. Wednesday's is a
getaway day often highest winning percentage on Wednesday. We got
three teams that are twelve and five, the Orioles, the Yankees,
(18:32):
and the Brewers. All right, middle of the week, let's
get going, let's win this thing. That's great. Good news
for them. The Royals are twelve and six, so just
a tough hit on the winning percentage. The Tigers are
the worst team on Tuesdays or Wednesday. Sorry, they're four
and eleven. Not good. Interestingly enough, the Dodgers are not
(18:54):
good on Wednesdays. Maybe they are so good on Monday
and Tuesday that they're winning those series. They're up to nothing, right,
They've already won the series. It's a day game. They're
excited to go see their families again. Off their mind.
See how they are on Sundays. If they're not great
on Sundays, the theory holds true. Moving on to Thursday,
(19:18):
which is, like Monday, not going to be a lot
of games for some teams. The highest winning percentage on Thursday.
Tampa Bay Rays they're eight and one and they're not
in the top ten. And the Mets are eight and two,
they're also not in the top ten. Tampa Bay Rays
have a three to seventy five better three seventy five
(19:41):
difference in win percentage on Thursdays then over the course
of the season, so that might be the biggest jump
in winning percentage difference. And then at the bottom, oh look,
my Yankees are a little bit of an outlier. They're
one of the only top ten teams that is in
the bottom five on Thursdays. I don't like it. They're
not into it. They're five and eight on Thursdays. That's tough.
(20:04):
But the Angels are one and nine. Angels stink on Thursdays,
all right. Moving on Friday weekend starts, it's a night game,
always a night game on Fridays, New series exciting times.
The energy in the stadium usually has more life than
(20:24):
any other day. Do you respond to that? The Royals do.
They're thirteen and five, so are the Houston Astros thirteen
and five on Fridays. That's good stuff. The Brewers look
at all these good teams. Maybe that's a storyline here.
Good teams dominate Fridays, Fridays at home. That's what I'd
like to see. But that's another thing I would have
(20:47):
to put into the algorithm. Here, Friday's at home, who's
the best team? Because that's when you got your home crowd.
It's racus. They're there, they're showed up. Worst team, Blue Jays,
White Sox, Rangers. The Red Sox are a bottom four
team on Fridays, but they are a top ten team
(21:10):
in the league. Rays also stink on Fridays. The Rays
are if they win the game, they're gonna lose the next.
If they win that, they're gonna lose the next. They're
back and forth. Team. Blue Jays, White Sox, Rangers are
the bottom three here, blue Jay's being five and fourteen
on Fridays. All right, Saturday usually a day game off
(21:31):
in a day game can be a night game, but
a lot of day games. The Yankees crush Saturdays. Hell yeah,
makes sense because so many times Saturday games it's just
like I'm watching on my phone it's so easy. I
don't need to pay attention. They're fourteen and six on Saturdays.
The Phillies are thirteen and six. Dodgers are thirteen and six.
The Nationals are also thirteen and six. So that's an
(21:53):
that's an outlier. The other way, Nationals bottom ten team
in the league, top four team on Saturday. Don't play
them on Saturdays. All right, let's find let's find out
who's got them on Saturdays. I'll do this. Nash knows
who's got the Nationals this Saturday, This Saturday, this upcoming Saturday.
(22:16):
The Nationals Angels? Are the Angels good on Saturdays? Or not?
Let's see Angels Angels? Angels are not good on Saturday.
Their bottom five team play cha bets, play cha bets.
Step right up and play cha bets. Uh. Then the Phillies,
the Braves, the Cubs. Okay, all right, let's keep going.
(22:39):
Mets are terrible on Saturdays. Five and fourteen. Wow, Mets.
Mets terrible in day games. The Mets are twenty two
and twenty eight in day games, so they're not great.
Best team in day games twins. Then the Orioles and
the Brewers good stuff. Best team of night games, Dodgers, right,
(23:05):
wake up, spend the breakfast time with their family. All
those family met over there in La. Let's keep going.
I gotta do Sunday becuz Sunday's got some good teams.
Like the most wins by any team on any single
day is Boston Red Sox on Sunday. Don't go there,
(23:28):
don't face them. They're sixteen and three. That's an eight
forty two winning percentage, which is three hundred and one
points higher than their five to forty one. The Diamondbacks
are really good on Sunday. The Yankees are good on
Sunday and then Okay, So I think what we've learned
(23:49):
is if you want to be a good team, you
got to win Friday and Sunday because that gives you
a series win. Every weekend that would also be a
good one. Like weekends versus non weekends, that'd be good.
I could do that single team, because I think the
Yankees are great on weekends, all right, but I don't
know if I think they're better on weekends then weekdays.
(24:10):
Let me clear this. I'm gonna do just Yankees, just Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
We're gonna go some whoa how could that possibly be?
Oh whatever, twenty three. Can't trust me to do math, ever,
even though it's simple arithmetic. The Yankees are thirty seven
(24:36):
and twenty on weekends. That's pretty good, right, it's gotta
be good. I think so six forty nine winning percentage. Yeah,
that's good. All right, let's change it to weekdays. Sorry,
(25:04):
I can't do this for every team twenty they're thirty. Okay,
we got thirty plus nine plus nine is seventeen seven.
Can't trust myself. Can't trust myself. The quality of the
(25:24):
content matter is just too much for me. Okay, but
this one I can Twelve plus eight is twenty and
five plus five is ten. So that's thirty and twenty
six and equals thirty divided by fifty six five thirty
five winning percentage on weekdays. So the Yankees are better
on weekends. I was right. I don't know. Maybe I
(25:47):
can show you this Google sheet and you guys can
play around with it and find out what your team is.
But you can't play around with it how I'm playing around,
because then I would need to give you editing power,
and then you can change all the numbers, so they
would have to be a view only, and then I
don't think hoggle it all. Let's see the biggest winning
percentage difference. It's the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursdays, three
hundred and seventy five points higher than their season winning percentage.
(26:11):
They're eight and one on Thursdays, Tampa Bay Rays. Try them,
you won't. And then the Dodgers on Mondays and the
Red Sox on Sundays. That's your top three teams on days. Okay,
so be careful. Be careful when you're playing the Rays
on Thursday, when you're playing the Dodgers on Monday, when
you're playing the Red Sox on Sunday, just be careful. Now,
(26:36):
don't get greedy, but be excited if you're playing the
Angels on Thursday, the Marlins on Monday, or the Brewers
on Monday. The Brewers are bad on Monday, Brews are
bad on Monday. That's the biggest outlier because they're top
ten team but bottom three. They have a bottom three
(26:57):
overall day for top ten team. Wow. What's wild is
the White Sox zero to fourteen, which is a zero
winning percentage, doesn't get them the biggest winning percentage difference
off their actual winning percentage because they're so bad all
(27:20):
the time. All right, that's as much as I can do.
I'll name this Google sheet MLB teams on days of week,
and then i'll put eight six eight five really because
the games haven't happened twenty four and maybe we can
share it if we want. Then you could copy and
(27:43):
paste it, put in your own sheet. Then you could
toggle it, mess with it. All right? Cool? Good, thanks.
Next topic is a very simple one. My good friend
mister Jolly Olive put me onto this. He said, there's
a there's a player out there who's the best in
Manfred innings. And what he did was he went to
Baseball Reference said in the regular season in twenty twenty
four in extra innings, has to have pitched at least
(28:06):
three innings of extra innings this season. And then there's one, two, three, four,
five guys that have not allowed or six guys that
have not allowed to run in extra innings. So you
get the runner on second base and Wooden Couns earned run,
not allowed to run, uh, not allowed to run? Right,
these guys haven't allowed to hit. They've walked a couple guys,
(28:29):
intentionally walked, a couple guys. But there's one guy with
the most Manfred Man innings this season who has not
allowed to run. And his name is Tyler Kinley. And
what's interesting about Tyler Kinley is he's not good elsewhere.
Like you guys know the name Sir Anthony Dominguez, Robert Suarez,
(28:51):
Johan Duran, David Robertson, Shelby Miller, they're good other places.
Tyler Kinley from Plantation, Florida, age thirty three, He's the
best man Fredman pitcher in the whole world. Right, He's
a journeyman. What not? Jurnyman was with the Minnesota Miami Colorado.
He's got a six seven five ERA on the year.
(29:13):
He's appeared in fifty games. His splits on the season.
Let's see, let's go to leverage, high leverage. Look at
this motherfucker zero eight five batting average in high leverage
one seventy OBP medium leverage, board, low leverage, whatever, high leverage. Yes, please,
(29:42):
I like the pressure. Please turn the pressure on in this.
Look at this and the ninth inning. No, thank you.
He's got a one dot zero six six ops eighth
inning No. Nine to six, eight seven through nine nine
thirty sixth inning eight forty one ops inning four through six, eight,
forty one ohps seventh inning, it's all right, five forty
(30:05):
two ops against that's good. But action earnings one one
eight and yeah, it's only five games. But we're having fun. Okay,
we're making storylines play along. Uh what other split would
go into this game? Conditions? No, by catcher, by umpire, No,
(30:27):
it would be like runners right, bases occupied. So this
would be zero out, runner on second? Where were that? Huh?
How do you? How would you organize this? I went
(30:47):
the runner on second and so I went, oh, yeah,
that's is okay. Here it is. I found it. Thirty
one play appearances, run around second. Maybe I don't care
about this. I don't know what I care about here.
(31:11):
Base is empty bad, he's better with men on, he's
best with runners in scoring position. Is there a way
to baseball savant? Tyler Kinley's there? Oh? You know what
it would be? Hang with me, Hang with me. Maybe
gonna hit this out, maybe not. I'm gonna find out
if his okay? Pictures Kinley all right? And then we're
(31:34):
gonna go innings and I'm gonna toggle all the innings
besides extra innings, and I'm gonna search that, and then
I'm gonna open up another tab with the same search.
But the innings are gonna be just extra innings. The
pitcher is gonna be Tyler Kinley, and I'm gonna search that,
(31:57):
and I want to see if his pitch mix change.
So in all the other innings he's slider heavy, fifty
two percent slider and then thirty six percent four seam
fastball four percent change up. That doesn't really matter. Now
in extra innings, is it going to be the same
(32:19):
or is he change his pitch mix in extra innings? Well,
he's never thrown a pitch besides the slider and the
four seam in extra innings, and he bumps the slider
up from fifty nine percent to sixty eight percent, which
the fastball goes from thirty six to thirty one. So
in extra innings, when the pressure's on Tyler Kinley's he's
(32:43):
doing the Joe Asanya advice I got in blitz Ball, Hey, Jimmy,
throw that good pitch, all right, best advice I ever
got that I don't take a lot and I embarrass
myself and stink it up. Heartbreaking losses, pain suffering, paedrogrif
fall sad whatever you want to call it. Let's see
(33:05):
on the season his slider all right, So on the season,
his slider has a two thirteen batting average against a
four to seventy five slug but a but a three
eighty expected slug and then the batting average against on
(33:28):
the four seam is three eighty five. So in the
extra innings he throws his slider way more, his four
seam way less, and that's helping him out. His four
team has a bad wifth percentage. Dude, someone trade for
this guy. His slider's got a forty percentage twenty five. Like,
(33:49):
if the Yankees traded for this guy, they just take
that four seam and say done, turn it into a
sinker two seam. So now there's x access to the
can't sit on the fastball and he'd be good next year.
Should be slider sinker for Tyler Kinley. I'm not a coach.
I just know what the Yankees do when they find guys.
(34:11):
He's better an extras because he throws his his forcing
fastball way less. His forcing fastball is getting getting. It's
got a six thirty eight expected slugging and he's getting
better results than that, whereas slider has a he's getting
worse results than expecting on a slider. But yeah, makes
a lot of sense. Guys, makes too much sense for
me just throwing a slider way more in extios. So
(34:41):
yeah makes sense. I mean he would did extras against
the Phillies, like, it's all sliders. This that bat against
the young let's watch it and then we'll end the show.
He went three sliders, high, tight slider top of the
(35:04):
zone for strike one. Looking it's it's like a tight slider.
Oh wait, Then he went so there's three sliders. Then
he went fastball ball, fastball ball, slider foul, and then
(35:28):
eventually got him on the slider swinging. If I have
this rightwing odd shape of that slider, it's like a
bullet slider down but works. Okay, So he's the best
(35:49):
man for the man pitcher ever. Probably that you know,
forcing fastballs are being phased out by by some unless
you really have it. Seems like if I was a
pitching coach, I just I'd take that ball and he's
here on the four seam and I'd just spin it,
put him in between the lanes. Pitching coach, Jimmy, thanks
for tuning in appreciate you guys. Subscribe to the channel

Hello, and welcome to Jimmy's Three Things. Thank you very
much for joining today. My name is Jimmy. There's three
things in Major League Baseball. I want to talk about
the Chicago White Sox historic losing streak. Got to dive
into that. What's going on? What's going on? Are we
going for history? I hope so. Thing number two? Is
your team better or worse on a specific day of
(00:20):
the week. Is there a team out there that hasn't
won a single game on a specific day of the week. Yes.
Thing number three the best man Fredman pitcher in all
of baseball who isn't good in other innings. So this
is Jimmy's Three Things. It's a production of Dan Patrick Productions,
John Boy Media and Workhouse Media. If you've watched before
(00:42):
and you enjoy like comment, subscribe to the channel that
helps a whole bunch leave comments saying what you want
to hear next time. If you have got any weird
stat area you want me to dive into. For now,
I'm gonna take a stip of my coffee and then
we're gonna begin, all right. The Chicago White Sox have
(01:04):
lost twenty one games in a row. Twenty one games
in a row have been lost by the Chicago White
Sox that tied the AL record. I don't want to
speak out a turn White Sox tie AL record losing streak.
I believe they tied the Baltimore Orioles from nineteen eighty
(01:26):
two nineteen eighty eight. So this is the longest losing
streak in my lifetime. They trail only the Philadelphia Phillies,
who set the modern day National League record after losing
twenty three straight nineteen sixty one. Manager White Sox manager
Pedro Griffall says, we talk about it every day. Shit, man,
(01:52):
I don't know. I feel like, hey, forget that, forget
that and the mounting pressure, forget the streak in the
fuck the streak. Let's just go play for today. I
think that's how I'd approach it. They're in their counting days.
It's twenty one in a row. It sucks. It's not fun,
it's painful. Everybody knows what it is. This is a
(02:16):
Pagrogerfall quote that's got short sentences like a poem. It's
twenty one in a row. It sucks, it's not fun,
it's painful, it hurts. You name it however you want
to describe it. Damn all right. I wanted to dive
into it, so I took the dates of it first.
(02:37):
The losing streak began on July tenth, day two of
a double header, so that kind of screws the numbers
I'm about to look at because I can't say, like
maybe I could do by games and not date. But
day one of the double header they want it. They
beat the Twins three to one. Was that the immaculate
(03:00):
inning save? It was the last time they won. Was
Michael Kopek pitching immaculate inning to get the save. And
since then, it's just been losing over and over and
over again. They lost by one run in the nightcap
of the doubleheader. Then they lost by three runs, then
four runs, then five runs, then six runs, then five,
(03:23):
then three. Then they lost in extra innings by one
another one run loss. So they've been somewhat close losses.
That's good. Then an eight run lost loss one run,
ten runs, three three, three, one, seven. Some close games
in there, some close games. They just can't figure it out.
(03:46):
I went to fangrafts and I punched in the date
July tenth to now White Sox player stats. Let's see
what the starting pitchers have done. Chris Flexen has star
did five games. In those five games, he has a
seven eight three e r A with a six point
fifteen x FIP. It's not good. Let me go standard stats.
(04:12):
See what we're looking at here? So uh, two quality
starts out of the five. How bout it? Twenty earned runs,
three home runs. Chad Cool he oh, Chad Cools pitch
a lot of innings but not started. Garrett Crochet has
started four games, thirteen innings pitched, with six earned runs,
(04:37):
So I should stop toggling around. Crochet has got a
four to one five ERA. That's not bad. Look at
our dude, Eric Fetti, he's throwing pitched three games in
this streak, two nine to three e RA. Look up
(05:00):
his stats. They traded him though, and he threw ooh
not great for the for the Cards, so he was good,
but they lost his games. They lost his last two games,
so they're counting the one game on the doubleheader when
he won. So he's pitched two games. How did they
lose this one? This game? Eric Freddy six point one
(05:21):
two earned runs. That's a winning effort. I mean, you
gotta have an offense, obviously, so that's the one that
went into extras and they lost, went into extra innings
and Brebia blew the save all right, and Feedie got
out of there. They're like, dude, you don't deserve this.
Let's get out of here. Chad Coole had a ton
of Chad Coole has the no Jonathan Cannon has the
(05:43):
most innings pitched three games, starts pitching four games, most
innings pitched three nine to six ARRA. That's not terrible.
Chad Cool is a two seven niney RA no start,
so he's coming in to help it out. Let me
go standard. Who's given up the most runs or earned runs?
(06:05):
Flexen's given up twenty, but he started. Brebbia's given up
eleven runs in this stretch. He's pitched in seven games
of this stretch and given up eleven runs. Seems to
be a problem. Wait, same with Stephen Wilson. Oh so
(06:26):
the bullpen's just awful. Wow, all pitching, no relief pitching,
and damn so if the relief pitching sorted by innings pitched,
Chad Cool been cool about it. Shout out boy genius,
(06:52):
Sammy Peralta, all right, Wilson, Brebia, Jordan Lasier who's what
a terrible tu innings for him? So Brebya's game log's
gotta be god awful. And Wilson they both pitched in
the extra innings loss. That's tough. I'm looking at now.
(07:14):
I'm pulling up John Brebia's game log. Yeah, pretty bad,
pretty bad. Twenty one ERA in his last six games,
he's got what he's got one clean sheet in his
last six appearances. That's not good. Uh. Stephen Wilson, I'm
(07:37):
guessing is gonna be same. That's not good either. Ooh,
Stephen Wilson's last three damn not good? Is he coming
in with wins? Came in up three eighth inning, up
three in this one, gave up three earned runs and
then he's coming in down to down three and then
(07:58):
he passes the baton and their six. Not good, not good.
Let's look at the offense. Tell me there's some dude
hitting well in this stretch. Come on, tell me there's
one dude hitting well in this stretch. Who's got a
good ops. Martin Maldonado five played appearances. Can't sorry, sorry sorry,
machete can't count. It can't count it. Andrew Benintendy seven
(08:23):
sixty eight ops. That's above average. Average OPS right now
is like seven oh five. I think it's really not
good average ops. Let's find it. Let's find it. MLB
Batting twenty twenty four Batting Standard Batting it is. Oh,
(08:46):
it's bumped up to seven twelve. Okay, well that's still
Benintendi's above that, and so is Tommy fam who got
out of there. So Ben and Tendee decent stretched. I mean,
it's it's not amazing because most of the OPS is
coming from slug which I don't like. I don't like
when I think you're on base has to be carrying
(09:09):
some weight. Three zero six on base on its own,
I don't believe is good. It's below average. So his
slugging's above average. But shout out to Ben and Tendi.
I mean, do you think he regrets signing that deal
with all his heart or do you think he's just
like whatever, he has to regret signing that deal has
(09:34):
to so in this stretch, Oh he didn't even dude.
Ben and Tendy had didn't play the doubleheader game they won.
So the last the last twenty three games that Ben
and Tendy played in have been losses. Damn Ben, and
(09:55):
Tenny's played in twenty three straight losses. They had two
wins in between there he didn't play them a couple
of multi hit games. So Benny's all right. Who's got
the most played appearances with the least production Luis Robert
(10:16):
Lennon Sosa? Not good? Oh my goodness, gracious, look at
that slash line for Sosa forty played appearances one O
eight average, one seventy five on base one O eight
slug two eighty three. Oh ps, what how much run
is forty divided by like four ten games? Is he
(10:38):
starting or is he just coming off the bench, because
that's hard to do. Let's see. No, he's starting. Wow,
that's gotta be a tough game. Log one for four,
oh for four, one for four, oh for two with
a walk and a hit by pitch. Nice. Then you
gotta pinch hit strikeout. Damn man, that that's tough. That's
(11:05):
bad if you do value stats. No bat at ball
as anyone having a babbit. Not really, So Benny's doing
all right. And then they traded Fetti and then Chad
(11:26):
Cooles doing his job. Who's pitching for him tonight? Jonathan
Cannon versus chicken strips ross stripling Jonathan Cannon last seven games. Well,
his last game was seven innings pitch one earned run.
That's good. They lost it, though, game before that, six
(11:50):
innings pitch to earn runs. Wait, this guy's been good, obviously,
they're just losing the game games. Jonathan Cannon made his
debut in this season and has a four to eleven
(12:14):
ERA on the year. What's this gonna come down to?
His last six starts three sixty eighty ra. How are
they losing these games? Seven innings, pitch one and run?
How they lose that game? What the fuck? That's such
a winning effort? Who outpitched them? Michael Waka? No, the
(12:35):
bullpenchers came in and blew it. Dude, Damn they've been
in games that stinks. All right, timers up on that topic.
We're gonna move on to the next topic, which is
based team records by split. Is your team good on
certain days and bad on other days? Well, I made
(12:56):
myself a Google sheet algorithm here because some websites have
MLB had it but not all in one spot. And
then I made a little code so if you're looking
at my screen, if you're watching on YouTube, yeah, I
was in the Google sheets today. Basically, what we're looking
at here is if the team is bolded in red,
that means it's a bottom ten team in baseball right now.
(13:17):
If it's bolded in green, that means it's a top
ten team in baseball right now. And then I have
each team's record per day of the week, and then
I have the winning percentage per day of the week
and the difference from their actual winning percentage. So some
things that stand out, right, some of the cooler things
(13:37):
that stand out. The Dodgers are really good on Mondays.
So if I clear this and just go, okay, what's
the best team on a Monday. If you guys want
me to do that first, I'll do that. The Reds
are ten and four on Mondays. The Dodgers are ten
and one on Mondays. They have a nine own winning percentage.
(14:01):
They start their week maybe because they got some older guys,
they got some vets, they're getting good night's sleep. They
take that Sunday day game and they go get a
nice night's sleep. You know, they're not out partying, taking
advantage of the night life. They're just hanging with their families.
Remember all of the Dodgers were on paternity to leave
a couple two seasons ago. Remembers like all twelve of
(14:23):
them had kids. So they're taking their Sunday nights. That's
family time. They're regrouping, regenerating. This is fan fiction what
I'm doing. No stats involved, just fan fiction based on
this number nine O nine winning percentage on Mondays after
the Dodgers go spend times with their loved ones. Good
for them, congrats. That's better than their season win percentage
of five eighty four. It's a three hundred and twenty
(14:45):
five percent difference in winning percentage. The Reds are also
good on Mondays. They're ten to four. The worst team
on Mondays, Oh no, it's the Chicago White Sox. They've
yet to win a game on a Monday. They take
that Sunday Day game, they go great, lots of time
(15:08):
to forget about this fucking season. I'm gonna go have fun.
Wake up Monday a little tired again. This is fan
fiction that I'm making up. It's I don't know if
this is real or not. I'm just projecting cool storylines.
What is real is they're awful. They have not won
a game on a Monday yet. How is that possible?
(15:31):
Has any team gone a full season just never winning
on a day of the week, And like, let's double
check the work here MLB calendar, White Sox should be
easy to see this the way they lay it out schedule,
because they have like the calendar schedule. Okay, so yeah,
(15:53):
they lost to the A's yesterday, so they had a chance.
In July Monday lost to the Twins. Homer and Derby
lost to the Rangers, lost to the Royals, yes, okay.
In June lost to the Dodgers obviously, obviously the Dodgers
are also On Mondays, lost to the Mariners and in
May lost to the Rays, postponed Nationals game got postponed,
(16:18):
lost to the Blue Jays, lost to the Blue Jays,
and in April lost to the Braves, lost of the Guardians,
lost to the Royals, lost of the Twins, lost of
the Twins. So it's real, guys, hate to break it
to you, it's real. They have not won. Who do
they got coming up? Who they got coming up? Yes, Yankees.
(16:39):
I'm a Yankees fan if you didn't know, So that's
exciting for me. Great, that's great news. Don't blow it, Yanks.
This team stinks On Mondays Capitalize, then the Giants, then
the Tigers, then the Orioles, Guardians, Angels. So all right,
(17:00):
so stink on Mondays have not won a game. Someone
needs to find it better than me. I don't know
how to do it. Across all seasons of all years.
Has a team ever not won on a single day
for the whole season, Because if that's never happened, and
the White Sox break that, that's cool. Just Mondays bad day.
That's a bad day, all right, other things that are cool.
(17:23):
Let's just go by I'll go by day for those
very curious. We'll go to Tuesday next and I'll just
do like the best and worst real quick for you guys.
The best team you got the Cleveland Guardians and the
Arizona Diamondbacks, both thirteen and four on Tuesdays. The Dodgers
have also won thirteen games on Tuesday, but they've had
five losses, so there's that. And then the worst team
(17:47):
of the Rockies, the Nationals and the White Sox. The
Rockies are three and fourteen on Tuesdays. You're always going
to have a game on a Tuesday. If you guys
don't know how MLB schedule works. Every team plays every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday,
and Wednesday. Yeah, very You might have a Wednesday off
(18:09):
day if you have a Monday Tuesday two game set,
Wednesday off day and then a four game Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
But that's kind of getting more and more rare. But
a Tuesday off day is very rare. Wednesday's is a
getaway day often highest winning percentage on Wednesday. We got
three teams that are twelve and five, the Orioles, the Yankees,
(18:32):
and the Brewers. All right, middle of the week, let's
get going, let's win this thing. That's great. Good news
for them. The Royals are twelve and six, so just
a tough hit on the winning percentage. The Tigers are
the worst team on Tuesdays or Wednesday. Sorry, they're four
and eleven. Not good. Interestingly enough, the Dodgers are not
(18:54):
good on Wednesdays. Maybe they are so good on Monday
and Tuesday that they're winning those series. They're up to nothing, right,
They've already won the series. It's a day game. They're
excited to go see their families again. Off their mind.
See how they are on Sundays. If they're not great
on Sundays, the theory holds true. Moving on to Thursday,
(19:18):
which is, like Monday, not going to be a lot
of games for some teams. The highest winning percentage on Thursday.
Tampa Bay Rays they're eight and one and they're not
in the top ten. And the Mets are eight and two,
they're also not in the top ten. Tampa Bay Rays
have a three to seventy five better three seventy five
(19:41):
difference in win percentage on Thursdays then over the course
of the season, so that might be the biggest jump
in winning percentage difference. And then at the bottom, oh look,
my Yankees are a little bit of an outlier. They're
one of the only top ten teams that is in
the bottom five on Thursdays. I don't like it. They're
not into it. They're five and eight on Thursdays. That's tough.
(20:04):
But the Angels are one and nine. Angels stink on Thursdays,
all right. Moving on Friday weekend starts, it's a night game,
always a night game on Fridays, New series exciting times.
The energy in the stadium usually has more life than
(20:24):
any other day. Do you respond to that? The Royals do.
They're thirteen and five, so are the Houston Astros thirteen
and five on Fridays. That's good stuff. The Brewers look
at all these good teams. Maybe that's a storyline here.
Good teams dominate Fridays, Fridays at home. That's what I'd
like to see. But that's another thing I would have
(20:47):
to put into the algorithm. Here, Friday's at home, who's
the best team? Because that's when you got your home crowd.
It's racus. They're there, they're showed up. Worst team, Blue Jays,
White Sox, Rangers. The Red Sox are a bottom four
team on Fridays, but they are a top ten team
(21:10):
in the league. Rays also stink on Fridays. The Rays
are if they win the game, they're gonna lose the next.
If they win that, they're gonna lose the next. They're
back and forth. Team. Blue Jays, White Sox, Rangers are
the bottom three here, blue Jay's being five and fourteen
on Fridays. All right, Saturday usually a day game off
(21:31):
in a day game can be a night game, but
a lot of day games. The Yankees crush Saturdays. Hell yeah,
makes sense because so many times Saturday games it's just
like I'm watching on my phone it's so easy. I
don't need to pay attention. They're fourteen and six on Saturdays.
The Phillies are thirteen and six. Dodgers are thirteen and six.
The Nationals are also thirteen and six. So that's an
(21:53):
that's an outlier. The other way, Nationals bottom ten team
in the league, top four team on Saturday. Don't play
them on Saturdays. All right, let's find let's find out
who's got them on Saturdays. I'll do this. Nash knows
who's got the Nationals this Saturday, This Saturday, this upcoming Saturday.
(22:16):
The Nationals Angels? Are the Angels good on Saturdays? Or not?
Let's see Angels Angels? Angels are not good on Saturday.
Their bottom five team play cha bets, play cha bets.
Step right up and play cha bets. Uh. Then the Phillies,
the Braves, the Cubs. Okay, all right, let's keep going.
(22:39):
Mets are terrible on Saturdays. Five and fourteen. Wow, Mets.
Mets terrible in day games. The Mets are twenty two
and twenty eight in day games, so they're not great.
Best team in day games twins. Then the Orioles and
the Brewers good stuff. Best team of night games, Dodgers, right,
(23:05):
wake up, spend the breakfast time with their family. All
those family met over there in La. Let's keep going.
I gotta do Sunday becuz Sunday's got some good teams.
Like the most wins by any team on any single
day is Boston Red Sox on Sunday. Don't go there,
(23:28):
don't face them. They're sixteen and three. That's an eight
forty two winning percentage, which is three hundred and one
points higher than their five to forty one. The Diamondbacks
are really good on Sunday. The Yankees are good on
Sunday and then Okay, So I think what we've learned
(23:49):
is if you want to be a good team, you
got to win Friday and Sunday because that gives you
a series win. Every weekend that would also be a
good one. Like weekends versus non weekends, that'd be good.
I could do that single team, because I think the
Yankees are great on weekends, all right, but I don't
know if I think they're better on weekends then weekdays.
(24:10):
Let me clear this. I'm gonna do just Yankees, just Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
We're gonna go some whoa how could that possibly be?
Oh whatever, twenty three. Can't trust me to do math, ever,
even though it's simple arithmetic. The Yankees are thirty seven
(24:36):
and twenty on weekends. That's pretty good, right, it's gotta
be good. I think so six forty nine winning percentage. Yeah,
that's good. All right, let's change it to weekdays. Sorry,
(25:04):
I can't do this for every team twenty they're thirty. Okay,
we got thirty plus nine plus nine is seventeen seven.
Can't trust myself. Can't trust myself. The quality of the
(25:24):
content matter is just too much for me. Okay, but
this one I can Twelve plus eight is twenty and
five plus five is ten. So that's thirty and twenty
six and equals thirty divided by fifty six five thirty
five winning percentage on weekdays. So the Yankees are better
on weekends. I was right. I don't know. Maybe I
(25:47):
can show you this Google sheet and you guys can
play around with it and find out what your team is.
But you can't play around with it how I'm playing around,
because then I would need to give you editing power,
and then you can change all the numbers, so they
would have to be a view only, and then I
don't think hoggle it all. Let's see the biggest winning
percentage difference. It's the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursdays, three
hundred and seventy five points higher than their season winning percentage.
(26:11):
They're eight and one on Thursdays, Tampa Bay Rays. Try them,
you won't. And then the Dodgers on Mondays and the
Red Sox on Sundays. That's your top three teams on days. Okay,
so be careful. Be careful when you're playing the Rays
on Thursday, when you're playing the Dodgers on Monday, when
you're playing the Red Sox on Sunday, just be careful. Now,
(26:36):
don't get greedy, but be excited if you're playing the
Angels on Thursday, the Marlins on Monday, or the Brewers
on Monday. The Brewers are bad on Monday, Brews are
bad on Monday. That's the biggest outlier because they're top
ten team but bottom three. They have a bottom three
(26:57):
overall day for top ten team. Wow. What's wild is
the White Sox zero to fourteen, which is a zero
winning percentage, doesn't get them the biggest winning percentage difference
off their actual winning percentage because they're so bad all
(27:20):
the time. All right, that's as much as I can do.
I'll name this Google sheet MLB teams on days of week,
and then i'll put eight six eight five really because
the games haven't happened twenty four and maybe we can
share it if we want. Then you could copy and
(27:43):
paste it, put in your own sheet. Then you could
toggle it, mess with it. All right? Cool? Good, thanks.
Next topic is a very simple one. My good friend
mister Jolly Olive put me onto this. He said, there's
a there's a player out there who's the best in
Manfred innings. And what he did was he went to
Baseball Reference said in the regular season in twenty twenty
four in extra innings, has to have pitched at least
(28:06):
three innings of extra innings this season. And then there's one, two, three, four,
five guys that have not allowed or six guys that
have not allowed to run in extra innings. So you
get the runner on second base and Wooden Couns earned run,
not allowed to run, uh, not allowed to run? Right,
these guys haven't allowed to hit. They've walked a couple guys,
(28:29):
intentionally walked, a couple guys. But there's one guy with
the most Manfred Man innings this season who has not
allowed to run. And his name is Tyler Kinley. And
what's interesting about Tyler Kinley is he's not good elsewhere.
Like you guys know the name Sir Anthony Dominguez, Robert Suarez,
(28:51):
Johan Duran, David Robertson, Shelby Miller, they're good other places.
Tyler Kinley from Plantation, Florida, age thirty three, He's the
best man Fredman pitcher in the whole world. Right, He's
a journeyman. What not? Jurnyman was with the Minnesota Miami Colorado.
He's got a six seven five ERA on the year.
(29:13):
He's appeared in fifty games. His splits on the season.
Let's see, let's go to leverage, high leverage. Look at
this motherfucker zero eight five batting average in high leverage
one seventy OBP medium leverage, board, low leverage, whatever, high leverage. Yes, please,
(29:42):
I like the pressure. Please turn the pressure on in this.
Look at this and the ninth inning. No, thank you.
He's got a one dot zero six six ops eighth
inning No. Nine to six, eight seven through nine nine
thirty sixth inning eight forty one ops inning four through six, eight,
forty one ohps seventh inning, it's all right, five forty
(30:05):
two ops against that's good. But action earnings one one
eight and yeah, it's only five games. But we're having fun. Okay,
we're making storylines play along. Uh what other split would
go into this game? Conditions? No, by catcher, by umpire, No,
(30:27):
it would be like runners right, bases occupied. So this
would be zero out, runner on second? Where were that? Huh?
How do you? How would you organize this? I went
(30:47):
the runner on second and so I went, oh, yeah,
that's is okay. Here it is. I found it. Thirty
one play appearances, run around second. Maybe I don't care
about this. I don't know what I care about here.
(31:11):
Base is empty bad, he's better with men on, he's
best with runners in scoring position. Is there a way
to baseball savant? Tyler Kinley's there? Oh? You know what
it would be? Hang with me, Hang with me. Maybe
gonna hit this out, maybe not. I'm gonna find out
if his okay? Pictures Kinley all right? And then we're
(31:34):
gonna go innings and I'm gonna toggle all the innings
besides extra innings, and I'm gonna search that, and then
I'm gonna open up another tab with the same search.
But the innings are gonna be just extra innings. The
pitcher is gonna be Tyler Kinley, and I'm gonna search that,
(31:57):
and I want to see if his pitch mix change.
So in all the other innings he's slider heavy, fifty
two percent slider and then thirty six percent four seam
fastball four percent change up. That doesn't really matter. Now
in extra innings, is it going to be the same
(32:19):
or is he change his pitch mix in extra innings? Well,
he's never thrown a pitch besides the slider and the
four seam in extra innings, and he bumps the slider
up from fifty nine percent to sixty eight percent, which
the fastball goes from thirty six to thirty one. So
in extra innings, when the pressure's on Tyler Kinley's he's
(32:43):
doing the Joe Asanya advice I got in blitz Ball, Hey, Jimmy,
throw that good pitch, all right, best advice I ever
got that I don't take a lot and I embarrass
myself and stink it up. Heartbreaking losses, pain suffering, paedrogrif
fall sad whatever you want to call it. Let's see
(33:05):
on the season his slider all right, So on the season,
his slider has a two thirteen batting average against a
four to seventy five slug but a but a three
eighty expected slug and then the batting average against on
(33:28):
the four seam is three eighty five. So in the
extra innings he throws his slider way more, his four
seam way less, and that's helping him out. His four
team has a bad wifth percentage. Dude, someone trade for
this guy. His slider's got a forty percentage twenty five. Like,
(33:49):
if the Yankees traded for this guy, they just take
that four seam and say done, turn it into a
sinker two seam. So now there's x access to the
can't sit on the fastball and he'd be good next year.
Should be slider sinker for Tyler Kinley. I'm not a coach.
I just know what the Yankees do when they find guys.
(34:11):
He's better an extras because he throws his his forcing
fastball way less. His forcing fastball is getting getting. It's
got a six thirty eight expected slugging and he's getting
better results than that, whereas slider has a he's getting
worse results than expecting on a slider. But yeah, makes
a lot of sense. Guys, makes too much sense for
me just throwing a slider way more in extios. So
(34:41):
yeah makes sense. I mean he would did extras against
the Phillies, like, it's all sliders. This that bat against
the young let's watch it and then we'll end the show.
He went three sliders, high, tight slider top of the
(35:04):
zone for strike one. Looking it's it's like a tight slider.
Oh wait, Then he went so there's three sliders. Then
he went fastball ball, fastball ball, slider foul, and then
(35:28):
eventually got him on the slider swinging. If I have
this rightwing odd shape of that slider, it's like a
bullet slider down but works. Okay, So he's the best
(35:49):
man for the man pitcher ever. Probably that you know,
forcing fastballs are being phased out by by some unless
you really have it. Seems like if I was a
pitching coach, I just I'd take that ball and he's
here on the four seam and I'd just spin it,
put him in between the lanes. Pitching coach, Jimmy, thanks
for tuning in appreciate you guys. Subscribe to the channel
