I think I looked up his most recent start, and these are approximate numbers here, but I believe he had five or six pitches that were above 95.
And earlier starts in the season when he was at his absolute peak, it was like 25 times a game he was getting to that level.
It's, to me...
I'll make a general statement that I'm curious if either of you are on board with.
But we talk a lot about average velocity in this game.
And that's, yeah, that's one way of measuring it.
To me, I look more at median and peak velocity.
So you might, meaning how many times when you really have to, do you have it still in the tank to go get 97?
I don't care what the average, I mean, I care on some level what the average is, but I care more what number can you hit when you really need to.
And that's the number that ceased when in the past he was able to put guys away with a swing and miss fastball.
And now I think you're seeing with the way that he's pitching, he is having to labor more and expend more pitches.
By the way, that's normal.
It's September.
I don't think he's injured.
I just think he's not...
quite as effective as he was earlier on in the season, which underscores, and Kevin, you've lived this, one of the great truths of baseball, which is the only day of the year when you're entirely healthy is day one of spring training.
I think on some level, Dylan Cease is living that
And Kevin, that's an excellent point.
And this is where John Schneider and Pete Walker have set up the rotation the way they have for this weekend because they have no other choice at the moment.
Obviously, we know they don't have the full complement of starting pitchers.
