“Induced vertical break has always been the second-most important metric (after velocity),” the Twins' Josh Kalk told us. On the widely-accepted metric: what it is, what it isn't, and what it has become, with @dennistlin & @chadjennings22

Hitters have long claimed some fastballs rise when nearing the plate. The effort to make that perception real has revolutionized the game.

Experto en el agarre de la bola para lanzar, entre otras muchas cosas, @enosarris muestra cómo tira Shane Bieber su cambio de velocidad desde su recuperación de la Operación Tommy John. #BlueJays. ⚾️👍⚾️. #AcciónXGotas.
This is the kick change grip for the changeup that Shane Bieber has been throwing since TJ, modeled by one of the first to throw it in the bigs, Hayden Birdsong. Amazes me that this pitch is harder than most changeups but as they tell me, you just throw it hard, grip does work.

With tomorrow's #BlueJays start, Trey Yesavage will have made more postseason starts (5) than he had AAA starts (4).

Here’s @MitchBannon with the pitcher on adding the pitch. https://t.co/K2cH9txmlc “I’m trying to throw that thing hard,” Bieber said. “And the harder you throw it, the more that depth ends up playing a factor.”

Toronto's new righty has always been a breaking ball artist. Now he has a new off-speed pitch in his arsenal.

For the first time, MLB team revenues have surpassed $2 billion for a season. Only the NFL team has sponsorship numbers that high. How has it happened? Largely the Dodgers. LINK: https://t.co/gynvBihOxp

What % of Peak Bat Speed leads to the best production? Contact quality is maximized in the 82-86% range Batted ball production is maximized at a higher range - 90-93% The 7% INCREASE is Bat Speed is worth more than the 2.14% decrease in Contact Quality
Over 60% of MLB swings occur at 80-90% of peak bat speed Bat speed training isn't about swinging with absurd intent in games—it's about raising your ceiling so you swing faster WITHOUT changing your level of intent 90% of 85 > 90% of 75 More info: https://t.co/oxAKifHMZR

Over his last 10 World Series games, Freddie Freeman has hit seven home runs and driven in 17 runs. The only other player in MLB history to reach those marks over a span of 10 games in the World Series is Lou Gehrig.

Here's the full story from court today. It was the most dramatic day in this case. Eric Kay's wife, Camela Kay, testified. She refuted many major claims made by Angels-represented witnesses. And there was much more on top of that. Read: https://t.co/1y8lJ4qhhX

Louis Varland has now thrown in 86 games between the regular season and postseason. That's the most by any MLB pitcher since Jeurys Familia pitched in 88 games in 2015.

Only twice in his career has Tyler Glasnow thrown 50% curveballs in a start, and one was in 2020 playoffs. It would make sense if today joined that list, given how good some of these Jays hitters are at high fastballs.

I spoke with Foster Griffin about his expected return to MLB after three seasons in Japan. Griffin, who now throws seven pitches, should appeal to teams looking for a starting pitcher and provides another left-handed option after Ranger Suarez and Framber Valdez.

Inspired from article by @enosarris (link under this post), I've made some charts on relievers for both teams both by pitch counts and which batters they have faced so far. So far, only Braydon Fisher has faced a batter twice (Edman and Pages) #WorldSeries #mlbpostseason

I just heard it as well. And the answer is yes. However …. growing up a tremendous baseball fan, I don’t have words for what it feels like to hear your song over the television watching the World Series.
@pharoahemonch just heard Rogers Centre play the “Simon Says” instrumental over the PA between pitches in Game 1 of the WS. do you get a check for that?

On how Vladdy and the Blue Jays are swinging harder than ever -- and profiting
nytimes.com
Swinging harder does not always mean more success, but it does when hitters do it the right way. Guerrero and the Jays are getting it right.

My family and I are thrilled to introduce the Rich Passan Sports Writing Scholarship, which will offer $5,000 annually to a college junior or senior. My father was a journalist for 41 years. He passed along that gift to me. Now it's our turn to share it.
