It isn't surprising. If you look at his statcast numbers on Savant, he's hitting the fastball really well, breaking balls sort of adequately, and offspeed pitches are killing him. So if you're a pitcher with great secondaries, you have the cheat code to get him out.Captain 97 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2024 11:21 pmKelenic now down to a .717 OPS and a 98 OPS+. season numbers are below what he did for Seattle last year.
The dude is incredibly streaky.

Re: Former Mariners tracker
Thats the cheat code for getting most hitters out isn't it, I don't see how it explains his streakiness. I'm thinking it's within him, he has difficulty keeping his swing together

He was probably getting more fastballs in the zone than he is right now.Captain 97 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2024 5:46 pmSo they mysteriously forgot that that was the way to get him out in June?GL_Storm wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2024 12:27 amIt isn't surprising.

Re: Former Mariners tracker
How doesn't every team and their scouts have a book on him by now????
btw he is currently in a 3-55 slump. Almost as bad as his rookie year....

Re: Former Mariners tracker
I think Ty France makes his debut today with the Reds vs. the Cubbies. He'll do well in the National league sorta like Winker. Not great but just O.K. Kinda like Kelenic. Not great but just O.K. Kinda like ALL of the players Jerry looks for....Not great but just O.K.

Re: Former Mariners tracker
Statcast gives every team a book on every player. It's a game of constant adjustment, more than it's ever been. But most pitchers will still want to throw their best pitch, which is usually the fastball.

Re: Former Mariners tracker
Here's a look at him from when he was hot. It's hard to believe pitchers can make an adjustment and he's suddenly going 3 for 55 or whatever
