Light day of baseball action yesterday; it’s an easy POTD to give out.
Chris Sale - 9.0IP 5H 0ER 0R 11K 0BB
A mega gem for Sale against the Dodgers. Sale was the SP7 off the board in drafts this year. Let’s remind ourselves of the top ten:
Skubal
Skenes
Crochet
Sanchez
Yamamoto
Sale
Woo
Gilbert
Brown
Ragans
The highlights are the guys I wouldn’t call busts. You can argue that Sanchez hasn’t quite pitched up to expectations, but comparing him with Skenes/Crochet/Woo/Brown/Ragans, he did pretty well.
But Sale has been the bomb dot com. A 2.06 ERA with a 1.00 WHIP on a 30.7% K% and a 4.9% BB%. He’s one of the top best pitchers we’ve ever seen. The 37-year-old now has a career 2.95 ERA. And he’s been mostly healthy for the last three years after throwing fewer than 50 innings in 2021-2022.
Chris Sale IP by Year
2021: 42.2
2022: 5.2
2023: 102.2
2024: 117.2
2025: 125.2
2026: 144 and counting
The utter shovethness of this start last night against the Dodgers was a statement. The Braves are a real contender this year with Sale as their SP1 and a high-upside offense if they can all get right at the same time.
This was the best start against the Dodgers of the last six years from what I can tell. It was only the third complete game against them since 2021. The other two were Sandy Alcantara on 8/27/2022 and Chad Kuhl on 6/27/2022.
The pitch mix from last night:
Four-seamer dominated, slider dominated, and he threw in some sinkers and changeups for fun. Elite arm, probably a future Hall of Famer.
It is a tough thing to compare pitchers these days with pitchers of old. Chris Sale will finish something like being 21,000 innings behind Nolan Ryan and Cy Young. How much does that matter? Does it matter at all?
I don’t think it should. You have to evaluate players up against other players in their same era. Cy Young threw 7,356 innings in the Majors. Sale isn’t going to get near 3,000.
On the other side of that gem was Yoshinobu Yamamoto
→ 6.33IP 4H 1ER 1R 8K 1BB
The one run allowed LOSS. Drake Baldwin led off the game for the Braves with a dinger, and that ended the scoring.
Fall weather is coming and I am getting excited for the postseason. Should be a good one.
Lord willing, we’ll see Jacob Misiorowski make a few starts in the playoffs. He looked kinda human last night:
→ 6.0IP 2H 2ER 2R 6K 2BB
Only a 6:2 K:BB in six innings with two runs allowed for the Miz.
His fastball velo was DOWN in this one. Alllll the way down to 98.7.
98.7mph would still lead the league for starters. But at least a couple guys would be in the same range:
Average FF Velo (1,000 pitches thrown minimum)
Misiorowski 100.6
Chandler 98.4
Schlittler 98.0
Burns 97.6
Bradley 97.1
Skenes 96.9
Woo 96.0
Gore 95.3
Harrison 94.8
Peralta 94.2
Not a ton of pitchers have thrown that many four-seamers. Eury, Roki, deGrom, Ashcraft, and Cease have all averaged more than 97.0mph on their four-seamers and would enter that top ten if you limited to just 700 pitches thrown.
This was just the fourth time this year he’s failed to go for 13+ whiffs. He had 12. It was his third-lowest Strike% of the year.
It was raining, and there were some footing issues with the pitcher’s mound. So that probably explains it.
The Brewers have a seven-game lead in the division and a 96% chance to win the division per FanGraphs, so the priority won’t be as much on winning every game in September for them as it will be with other teams.
Each division’s leading team and their % chances of winning their division:
AL East: Rays 74%
AL Central: White Sox 60%
AL West: Astros 44%
NL East: Braves 88%
NL Central: Brewers 96%
NL West: Dodgers 99.8%
Gerrit Cole - 6.0IP 6H 3ER 3R 5K 1BB
Only 79 pitches for Cole. The New York games were both a bit wet. I’m just assuming that, actually. I don’t know. But it rained in the Mets game, and how many miles could Yankee Stadium be from there?
Looks like SIX, as the crow flies. But 13.5 if you have to drive it.
Cole has been very good this year. Not a ton of ceiling games, but mostly above 20 fantasy points:
He’ll be another big name we’ll see this postseason, and they should be getting Judge back by then.
The two BUMS of the night:
→ Trevor Rogers - 5.0IP 7H 6ER 6R 7K 1BB
→ Sean Manaea - 5.67IP 8H 6ER 6R 3K 1BB
The seven strikeouts for Rogers were nice, but he gave up two homers. That was the first time he gave up multiple homers since May 29th.
It hasn’t been all great for Rogers. His last seven starts:
Still a 23% K-BB%, though. Just some home run rate problems, giving up six homers in this time. You should still be starting him.
He’s always been a pretty elite home run suppressor.
2021: 0.4 HR/9
2022: 1.26 HR/9
2023: 1.00 HR/9
2024: 1.01 HR/9
2025: 0.49 HR/9
2026: 1.05 HR/9
Last year was a mirage with a 5.5% HR/FB, one of the lowest you’ll ever see. It’s up to 9% this year, still well below league average. Well located high four-seamers and changeups is the way to do that, and he does that. And he has a favorable home park as well in Baltimore.
Manaea is an enigma. After cruising for a few weeks, he’s now given up 14 earned runs in his last three. His stuff has never been great, and he usually gets results by fooling dudes with his delivery and release point. But that stuff can’t be trusted start-in and start-out. You’ve gotta have STUFF.
Spencer Arrighetti - 4.0IP 5H 3ER 4R 4K 2BB
The Blue Jays are not letting Arrighetti see much of the lineup the third time through. He’s made just two starts with them and has thrown 61 and 79 pitches. I don’t know why I’m spending time on Arrighetti. But it’s funny to remember what he did early on this year.
First 8 GS: 1.34 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, 22% K%, 13% BB%
Last 10 GS: 8.19 ERA, 1.59 WHIP, 23% K%, 13% BB%
I’d really like to know if some of these pitchers know they’ve been really lucky when they’ve been super lucky. I suspect they mentally find a way to explain it and think they’re actually just really good, and then they’re kinda surprised when the regression hits them. That would be interesting to hear from a player.
Jackson Chourio had the biggest day. A double pipe and a single swipe. 47 fantasy points.
Chourio had a late start to the year, missing all of March and April. But he’s had the best season of his career by many metrics:
An .821 OPS on his way to a season where he’ll probably hit 22-23 homers and steal 16-18 bags with a .283 average.
The plate discipline has improved. He’s swinging less, and therefore chasing less.
The discrimination still hasn’t been the best. His chase rate has dropped just 5% while the zone-swing rate is down 11%. Not all drops in swing rate are created equal. Maybe that’s why his K% has come up a bit as the walk rate has also.
But he’s hitting the ball very hard (107.1 EV90 on all balls in play, 104.2 on fly balls). His barrel rate is up to 13%.
The stolen base attempt rate is down from his first two years. That’s not what you love to see, but it’s all worth it since he’s slugging for almost 20 more points and homering at a significantly higher rate.
Very good player, very good fantasy player. Probably a mid-to-late second round player next year.
But be reminded that he’s 22.5 years old. He was one of the few players to ever play as a teenager, so there’s a lot of time left for him to change and improve. It seems like a guy with a few 30-30-.275 seasons eventually.
Jac Caglianone hit another bomb and had five hits and six RBI.
He has a .931 OPS since June 1st with 18 bombs and even five steals now since he’s ramped that up in August.
Always bet on young talent. That seems to be one of the biggest edges in drafts to me. Find those uber-talented young guys who struggled a bit the previous year or two when first arriving to the bigs. They need time to figure stuff out.
Since June, Caglianone has a 109.8 EV90, a near league-topping number, and he puts it together with an 84% Zone-Contact%.
Few hitters can put those things together. Very hard swings with high(ish) contact rates. There’s a plot for that on the main dashboard. This is zone contact% vs. bat speed.
There are seven names with bat speed above 76mph and a z-contact% above 80%:
Yordan Alvarez
Cag Caglianone
Junior Caminero
Jordan Walker
Willson Contreras
Cam Smith
Jo Adell
I think I’ll be doubling down on Cam Smith next year. He fits this Caglianone mold from this year. Plus he’s got some speed.
Maybe Cags slides into the third round next year in a 12-team league? That would be a pretty nice value there, but we’ll see. He’s certainly not going to fly beneath anybody’s radar next year like he did this year.
The Royals smashed last night with 16 hits and 13 runs.
Homers: Jensen, Cags, Pasquantino
They saw Arrighetti, Braydon Fisher, Simeon Woods Richardson, Michael Lorenzen, and Myles Straw.
So that’s basically a AAA level start, a reliever, two of the worst pitchers in baseball who were already cut this year, and then a position player. Pretty easy to score some runs when that’s what you’re facing.
Vinnie P since coming back from IL
.342/.432/.684, 1.116 OPS, 2.3% K%, 13.6% BB%, .306 xBA, .438 xwOBA
They have faced a pretty easy schedule, but I mean… three homers, one strikeout, six walks in 44 PAs. That’s impressive stuff.
Carter Jensen has 18 homers, which is fine, but a .719 OPS and a .224 AVG.
Not exactly the season we thought we’d get after his elite 20-game debut last year.
A 70.5% Contact% and 81% in-zone tells you pitchers have found some holes. He still hits the ball pretty hard and gets it in the air a lot, but he’s not able to hit really good pitches, I guess.
More work to do from Jensen. But plenty of talent there and probably a really good buy-low option right now.
Keibert Ruiz has turned the power swing on. He’s hitting .368/.438/.509 in August with two homers.
He’s a high contact bat without much power. But a 2.9% HR% is the best we’ve seen since 2023 when he hit 18 bombs. Not a fantasy catcher, but hey - hat tip to Keibert.
Many people have dropped Jazz Chisholm Jr. this year. I got asked about him a bunch of times. I was never really into the idea of dropping him. The steals have been magnificent. He stole two more last night and has four in his three games, and 38 for the year. Plus 18 homers.
So the guy is going to have a 20-40 season in all likelihood. The .227 AVG is a killer, and the .307 OBP is very low as well. But if he snaps back to a .240-.250 average next year, he’s a 2nd or 3rd round value, and he might be much too cheap next year. He’ll be a free agent, so his landing spot will matter. But he’s #2 in the league now in steals (Nasim Nunez), and he has the second most homers for anybody with 30+ steals (PCA, of course).
I’m curious about caught stealing leaders. Four players have gotten caught 10+ times:
You can take this different ways for the future.
The positive spin is that they’re having bad luck in getting caught and could steal even more bags next year if the success rate comes up.
The negative spin is that their team might tell them to stop running so much since a caught stealing is a very bad outcome for the team.
Five hitters have 10+ steals without being caught a single time.
Bryson Stott 23/23
Royce Lewis 13/13
Mike Trout 11/11
Luis Arraez 10/10
Daulton Varsho 10/10
Highest success rates for 15+ SB hitters:
Stott 23 SB, 100%
Griffin 20 SB, 95%
Bogaerts 17 SB, 94%
Swanson 17 SB, 94%
Wood 17 SB, 89%
Merrill 24 SB, 89%
J Ram 31 SB, 89%
Otto Lopez 29 SB, 88%
Hoerner 21 SB, 88%
Tolbert/Carroll 20 SB, 87%
That’s the notes!
