ICYMI: Prospect Savant assisted in the “shrinking strike zone” investigative piece earlier this season for The Athletic. - nytimes.com/athletic/63281… - nytimes.com/athletic/63269…
The strike zone is being called smaller (& more by the book) this year as you can see from this viz from @ProspectSavant. MLB changed how umpires are judged, reducing the buffer zone by 60%. Per game impact is small but there will be thousands fewer called strikes by end of year.
This was Dillon Lewis’ Low-A underlying in almost 200 PAs before being promoted (via @ProspectSavant great great website check them out!) That EV90 and Pull Air% is exciting, hoping Lewis can finish the year strong in high-A to start next year in Somerset
Dillon Lewis went 2-4 with an RBI double. He’s once again showing his ability to adjust once he gets promoted. April was his first full month in Low-A, June was his first full month in High-A. A lot of pop in his bat. If he can make contact, watch out.
Nick Kurtz had 19 total bases tonight! Here’s how he performed in AAA this year prospectsavant.com/player/701762
Griffin Herring (acquired by Colorado for Ryan McMahon) has some wicked stuff, but struggles with hard contact. prospectsavant.com/player/702622
Pending medicals, Yankees will get LHP Griffin Herring and RHP Josh Grosz from Rockies, source says. McMahon obviously isn’t having the same kind of season as Suárez, but he is under contract through ‘27, while Suárez is a rental.
Let's breakdown Wellington Aracena: a potential fast rising flamethrower and newest Baltimore Oriole🧵
Could Jordan Lawlar be a playing time beneficiary if the D-Backs are committed to selling? prospectsavant.com/player/691783
Will Tyler Locklear take over for Josh Naylor for the Mariners at the end of 2025, or be traded at the deadline? prospectsavant.com/player/682988
Chandler’s final line on 92 pitches.
Tonight, Bubba Chandler will make what could be his final AAA start for the @indyindians - the upcoming trade deadline could free up a rotation spot for Chandler to make his way to Pittsburgh! prospectsavant.com/player/696149

Spencer Jones’ Z-Contact % is at 11th percentile so he’s definitely gaining some ground there.
Spencer Jones’ Z-Contact % is at 11th percentile so he’s definitely gaining some ground there.
He struggles against nearly every pitch type, and the struggle to catch up to fastballs is worrying, especially when you take the 93.2 MPH average into account. He crushes anything high. But when pitchers attack him low, he manages to do very little damage.
Rodriguez is genuinely a baffling prospect: - Elite discipline ✅ - Elite Hard-Hit rates ✅ - Elite Barrel% ✅ - Plus defender ✅ But also: - Below-average Z-Contact% ❌ - High Whiff% ❌ - Doesn't pull fly balls ❌ And he struggles to stay healthy.
Spencer Jones once a month
🚨Spencer Jones….GONE! (Looks like a change in stance too) #RepBx #Yankees
Kade Strowd has just been recalled by Baltimore - let’s see if he can stick. Potential permanent bullpen role post trade deadline. Our multiple linear regression whiff model for comparable major league pitches loves his entire mix! prospectsavant.com/player/669704
He'll be back at some point and I look forward to his cup of coffee paying dividends when he does.
Craig Yoho seems pretty sick of AAA! 0.87 ERA over 31 IP. prospectsavant.com/player/684974
