How important are matchups in college baseball? Often times, matchup value runs deeper than handedness. @ParadigmPDS help college coaches optimize every plate appearance with the arms you actually have, not the ones you wish you did.
The way we’ve been thinking about pitcher-vs-hitter matchups in college baseball is due for an upgrade. In this weeks article, we reveal when a pitchers stuff is good enough to override a matchup and when it isn’t. Read more 👇👇 https://t.co/qrdf2ilGT5

College baseball doesn’t play by pro baseball’s rules.

This idea of a “North Star” doesn’t just apply to player development, it’s a way for pitchers to find their identity and build confidence on the mound.
“We knew things were headed in the right direction when every pitcher had their North Star in their data and knew how to use it to guide their own performance” - @thomasmsantana on being a player whose team uses @ParadigmPDS

Yamamoto in the World Series highlights the importance of Acute: Chronic Workload. If he overthrows for the last 6 months, doesn’t recover seriously, or doesn’t stick to his routine he doesn’t have the ability to spike his acute workload without getting hurt. RECOVERY MATTERS

Another dominant performance for Trey Yesavage makes for another nasty @ParadigmPDS report. Yesavage dominated with his slider, throwing it 43% of the time, generating 21 (!!) whiffs on the pitch. The league is not ready for his arm angle.
MLB orgs are on to something with these young high arm angle guys like Yesavage, Tong, Bibee, etc. They use their deception incredibly well to create success without having outlier shapes in their arsenal.

As we get closer to Game 5, Will Klein’s extra-innings performance in Game 3 looks even more important now. A true win for the nerds, Klein proved that elite stuff plays when it matters most. Could we see him pitch again in this series? #Postseason

Building a platoon neutral arsenal is one of the quickest ways to become valuable on the mound. Especially in college baseball. Being a matchup against everyone makes you a weapon.
