Cookie crisp4/9/2023 And hey, 100 pitches! You really don’t see that much anymore. That’s a 0.52 ERA through his first three starts and it’s great to see the strikeouts start to flow on the back of that slow ball - 11/37 whiffs in this one. Pablo López vs STL (W) – 7.0 IP, 0 ER, 3 Hits, 0 BBs, 9 Ks – 15 Whiffs, 35% CSW, 100 pitches.Īfter an off-season of concern, all PabLó has done is toss fantastic four-seamers and changeups, and dominate. Let’s see how every other SP did Thursday: For the standard fantasy manager, I’d just hold and keep starting until the wheels fall off. In other words, I’d sell high if some are treating him like a legit SP #4 or whatnot - he’s pitching as well as the line indicates at the moment. If I had to guess, I’d say we’re dealing with a Cherry Bombsituation at best and a Tobyin most cases. The good news is he’s been inconsistent but always had at least one working each start, allowing him to survive and prosper.

Last outing was the changeup doing all the work, and here it was the slider going 43% CSW and 65% strikes. Let me explain.Ĭarrasco is a touch behind velocity-wise (92.8 mph is a little behind the 93/94 mph we normally see), but the main question has been the secondaries -will he have the classic changeup & slider dominance? And I’m not sure that we will - in fact, we haven’t seen both dominate in a start yet this year. Oh man, so he’s the old Carrasco, right?! A must add? Maybe. Carlos Carrascowas someone I was hoping could rebound with a healthy off-season and he’s come out swinging, punctuated by today’s 7.2 IP, 2 ER, 4 Hits, 0 BBs, 7 Ks – 10 Whiffs, 32% CSW, 91 pitches against the Giants. Carlos Carrasco vs SF (W) – 7.2 IP, 2 ER, 4 Hits, 0 BBs, 7 Ks – 10 Whiffs, 32% CSW, 91 pitches. Have questions? Ask me during my office hours on Twitch weekday mornings from 9 am-11 am ET.
