Send us a textWhat if the pursuit of more powerful pitches is actually harming pitchers' careers? Join us as we tackle the ongoing dilemma of rising pitcher injuries in Major League Baseball. We'll guide you through the latest MLB report that highlights the role of increased velocity and the relentless quest for strikeouts as culprits behind the surge in injuries. Despite advancements in technology and health practices, the inability to curb this trend calls for a deeper analysis of player development. We reflect on how the focus has shifted, raising critical questions about the future of the game.Listen in as we weigh in on the age-old debate between traditional wisdom and modern training techniques in arm care. Legendary pitchers like Nolan Ryan thrived without major surgeries, sparking intriguing comparisons to today's injury-laden players. By exploring how current training methods might restrict natural adaptation, we consider whether pitchers should be allowed to push their boundaries to cultivate long, healthy careers. We discuss the potential impacts of stringent inning limits and early injuries on young players, emphasizing the balance needed between technological advancements and time-honored practices.Finally, we're diving into the world of minor league development, examining the challenges young athletes face as they transition to the majors. With insights from experts like Kyle Boddy from Driveline, we uncover the disparity between minor and major league experiences and how the trend of protecting prospects might affect their readiness. Reflecting on personal experiences, we highlight the importance of resilience and practical experience in overcoming physical thresholds. Along the way, expect some light-hearted moments as we engage with these complex dynamics and share the growth journey of our podcast.ARTICLE REFERENCE:https://metsmerizedonline.com/arms-in-danger-finds-mlb-report/THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!!!!www.holdmycutter.com

Tradition makes baseball a great game, but tradition also holds it back. If you read or follow baseball, the sport often seems like it is in a constant civil war between the data analysts and the old school coaches. Coach Paul Davis pulling together and balancing both sides of the spectrum, helping move the sport forward while respecting and learning from its past. He joins us on this week's GAINcast to talk about creating a learning organization, finding usable data, the evolution of the game, rethinking the demands of pitching and athletic development for pitchers, and a look at velocity and pitcher health.

If you're a baseball fan, you've probably heard of Driveline founder Kyle Boddy. If not, here's your intro to one of the most revolutionary figures in sports, and a great podcast guest to boot. Kyle's revolution is taking the Moneyball hunt for market inefficiency to the realm of improving players. After demonstrating an impressive proof of concept with pitching and hitting, he's taking his storied abilities into the other major sports. Outline from the astute Sam Schuette… * Revolutionary changes in sports* Manu Ginobili's Eurostep* How much is tradition worth following?* Can AI find new strategies that haven't been tapped into?* Making sports less enjoyable by optimizing it* It pays for batters to play “boring”* How to look for the glitch and exploit it* What teams miss when they solely focus on big-name prospects and not undrafted players* If you're great, throw it right down the middle* Why it's un-American to ignore the under-the-radar players with untapped potential* What variables separate good organizations from bad organizations?* The importance of purpose and direction* Why Heat Culture is so prominent* How they hold their players accountable while other teams do not* Does the player-driven league limit accountability?* What constitutes good hitting?* Bat speed vs. smash factor vs. swing decision* What people misunderstand about the key to good hitting* Applying baseball sports science concepts to basketball* What Hawkeye player tracking can reveal that Second Spectrum cannot* Why basketball is harder to analyze than baseball and football* Secrets to pitching improvements* The role of overload-underload training in increasing pitch speed* Should you really keep your eye on the ball?* What recent research shows about how hitters make contact without looking at the ball* What kids' love for video games reveals about players' love for their sport* The importance of immediate feedback in video games and sports training* Making a player's improvement into a quantifiable video game* Telling someone they're getting better isn't enough unless there's data to support it* The importance of having a coach who wants it as bad as the player* Proving your worth through work ethic* What Kyle learned from Reds pitcher Michael Lorenzen This is a public episode.

The following players are discussed:1.Dylan Crews (OF, Was, #2)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2025-26 Fantasy Ceiling: First-Round Fantasy PickTools Summary: 20-20 upside with a feel to hit.Dylan Crews had the best combination of safety and upside in the 2023 Draft. A handful of high school players have a higher upside, but when you combine his proven ability to hit in the SEC with a 20-20 profile, he should be the top player selected in supplemental Dynasty League Drafts. If you're looking for a comp, I liken him to Jackson Holliday. Yep, he has a chance to be that good. 2.Wyatt Langford (OF, Tex, #4)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2025-26 Fantasy Ceiling: Top 30 OFTools Summary: 20-30 upside with high OBP skills.Right behind Dylan Crews in the Draft was Wyatt Langford. He has plus power and is a 70-runner with a feel to hit. From a fantasy standpoint, if you're picking #2 in supplemental drafts, do not fret, as there is a chance that Langford will be as good as Crews. Crews might be the slightly better hitter, but Langford has more power and speed potential.3.Paul Skens (RHP, Pit, #1)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2024-25 Fantasy Ceiling: Top 15 SPTools Summary: He has the size and arsenal to be a #1 starter. Given how hard he throws, there is risk of early arm troubles, as seen with Hunter Greene.Paul Skens attended the Air Force Academy for two years but then transferred to LSU for his Junior year. Apparently, cadets are allowed to leave the academy before their junior year. While I'm not sure about the rules, I'm surmising that the relaxed rules that have allowed college players to transfer through the NCAA Portal, has opened up this capability for players who decide to pursue a professional career. That rule was not available to those who remember Noah Song.When you're 6-foot-6 and sitting in the upper 90s and routinely hit the triple-digits with your fastball, you get drafted early. Should he have gone one overall? There is an argument. I would have gone with Crews, but he's deserving. It's a Hunter Greene starter kit. He throws hard, but his fastball is relatively straight with secondary pitches that should get plenty of strikeouts. If you decide to take him in your supplemental drafts, the correlation of high velo pitchers to arm trouble is increased. Just know the risk.4.Max Clark (OF, Det, #3)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2026-27 Fantasy Ceiling: Top 30 OFTools Summary: Extremely athletic with plus speed and plenty of bat speed to project future power. Max Clark is one of the most athletic players in the 2023 Draft, with 70-grade speed and plenty of bat speed to project future power. While high school stats should be taken with a grain of salt, he did steal 35 bases while hitting .551. In reviewing film, the swing should work, and over time, I believe he'll add bulk to his frame with over-the-fence power. The Tigers will be careful with him, so I expect him to spend all of 2024 in Low-A. Once fully developed, the upside is a 15-30+ player with more power as he fills out.5.Walker Jenkins (OF, Min, #5)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2026-27 Fantasy Ceiling: Top 40 OFTools Summary: Athletic with a lefty swing built for 30+ home run future pop. I saw Walker Jenkins multiple times in high school, and he's a plus athlete with a beautiful lefty swing that should be built for power. He's a plus runner, but as he fills out his 6-foot-3 body, I think he will emerge into a power-hitting corner outfielder with a handful of stolen bases. It will come down to how much he hits, and the early returns look encouraging. 6.Matt Shaw (SS, CHC, #13)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2024-25 Fantasy Ceiling: Top 10 2B/3BTools Summary: Plus power with a feel to hit and speed early in his career. I was surprised when Matt Shaw dropped to pick 13 in the 2023 Draft. He's a natural hitter with considerable power despite his 5-foot-11 frame. Across his sophomore and junior season at Maryland, he hit 48 home runs and stole 30 bases in 122 games. He also walked nearly as much as he struck out (14% K-Rate). The profile reminds me a lot of Alex Bregman, and while I don't think he'll pop 40 home runs, I think he'll have serious power.7.Rhett Lowder (RHP, Cin, #7)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2025 Fantasy Ceiling: Top 30 SPTools Summary: 70-grade change-up with a chance for at least a 60 slider. Plus, he throws strikes. If the Reds can get him to throw harder, he has the ceiling of a number two starter.Kyle Boddy has made the Reds pitchers better. So when the Reds went early on Rhett Lowder, I immediately set up in my chair. It's not a big fastball, but he's got a double-plus change-up with a slider/sweeper that, over time, could grade out as plus. Plus, he throws strikes. In his draft year, he walked less than two per nine; and this is the most critical aspect of his profile. You see, Major League teams are drafting pitchers like Lowder, with plus secondary pitches and the ability to throw strikes, and getting them to throw harder. It would not surprise me to see him touching 97 shortly after the Reds get him into their system. The upside is a number two starter. Finally, don't you need a Rhett on your Dynasty League team? I know I do!8.Enrique Bradfield (OF, Bal, #17)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2025-26 Fantasy Ceiling: Top 45 OFTools Summary: An 80-grade runner that, with some swing tweaks, could unlock power. The Orioles are a perfect landing spot for him. Enrique Bradfield's carrying tool is his 80-grade speed, with the MLB Network comping him to Willie McGee. It was hard to deny the similarities when they threw up his swing and put it side-by-side with Bradfield. He does produce high exit velocities, but his swing is more geared for contact. This is where you have to trust the Orioles. I think they can tweak the swing to get him more upright and add loft, and that below-average current power will turn into average power quickly. From a fantasy standpoint, he could steal 40 bases, and his elite defense will make him a big leaguer. I'm investing.9.Tommy Troy (3B, Ari, #12)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2025-26 Fantasy Ceiling: Top 15 3BTools Summary: A potential plus hit tool with above-average speed and power.I'm not a fan of Stanford hitters as they coach their hitters to all hit the “Stanford way” - a very structured approach and swing. This has proven to be sub-optimal for many players over the years. However, it seems to have worked for Tommy Troy, as he can flat-out hit. He hit .394 in his draft year with 17 home runs and 17 stolen bases. The swing is built for contact and lacks loft, so projecting plus future plus power might be a reach. But I can safely project a 15-15 player with a .270 average and 60 to 70 points on top of that for OBP.10.Colin Houck (SS, NYM, #32)Highest Level: Draft ETA: 2026-27 Fantasy Ceiling: Top 15 SSTools Summary: He has a feel to hit with speed and power. Colin Houck is a great athlete with size for future power. At least early in his career, he will have plus speed. He hit .487 with eight home runs in his Senior Year. I'm not sure how he lasted to the 32nd pick, but if he signs, I think the Mets got a huge bargain here.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3306394/advertisement

Kyle Boddy (@drivelinebases) is the founder of Driveline Baseball, the best data-driven baseball development program in the world. I recently taught a course in sports analytics at the University of Miami, and Kyle was gracious enough to provide materials to Nikolai Yakovenko for a guest lecture on "What Makes Good Pitching?" The material is fascinating and surprising for anyone with the slightest interest in baseball. Much of that material is covered in the first half of the podcast. Other podcast topics include: Kyle's transition from poker to sports analytics, the early coaching experience that led to the development of Driveline, the new Driveline metric Stuff+ (which quantifies pitch effectiveness), his recent experience with the Cincinnati Reds, and his future ambitions.

So awful, just terrible. The Mets were swept by the Brewers this weekend and did not even make it competitive. They couldn't hit, field, or pitch in a brutal display of apathetic baseball. Such a shame to have seen this team fall so hard and so fast. Javy and Lindor are still hitting, same with Nimmo, but that's it. Gary and Keith let their opinion be known this weekend and we discuss that for a little bit. Also, Noah Syndergaard's weird rehab, the Kyle Boddy rumors, and number retirements.

Cedric Phillips sits down with his long time friend and founder of Driveline Baseball, Kyle Boddy, for part two of their back and forth conversation about their 2018 year in review and how they're preparing for 2019 and beyond. This time around, they do a little Q&A from many of their followers and listeners. Just like last time, we hope you enjoy, but more importantly, take a lot away from these conversations.

Cedric Phillips sits down with his long time friend and founder of Driveline Baseball, Kyle Boddy, to talk about their 2018 year in review and how they're preparing for 2019 and beyond. Just how far can one person push their limits without experiencing burnout? What do Ced and Kyle do when they get frustrated with work? How does one remove emotion from decision making? And how do two people who spend so much of their time working and have such a high bar for success come to terms that those who they work with may not have similar goals? This is part one of a lengthy, but enlightening, two-part conversation (the second part is a Q&A!) that I hope you enjoy, but more importantly, take a lot away from.

Driveline Baseball’s founder Kyle Boddy has been described, kindly, as an industry disruptor, a visionary, an innovator; and less kindly, as abrasive, off-putting, egocentric and dickish. Appropriately, this week’s podcast jumps right into conversation with Boddy describing his setup at Driveline—no music or soft lead-in. Over the course of the conversation, and building off Levi Weaver’s excellent series of articles on Boddy in the Athletic, Boddy reveals himself as a polymath who’s been, in turns, a mathematician, philosopher, economist, classically trained pianist, scientist, entrepreneur, professional poker player, Magic the Gathering enthusiast, Little League coach, and Warped Tour bassist. He also presents himself as a more mellowed-out version of his earlier, swaggering online presence, an objective scientist who lets data win out over ego. More than anything, Boddy is a visionary who uses data in all its forms to create a holistic model for building a better baseball player. The conversation flows quickly and recursively, at times doubling back on itself to reinforce ideas or clarify concepts, and therefore we won’t be providing a full minute by minute listing of topics, because there are often multiple topics covered over a span of just a few minutes. Some of the things touched upon: why scouts don’t know what to do with Driveline; Blackberry vs. iPhones; Driveline’s staff of “miscreants”; why the most important question for successful people to ask is “what next?”; why teams should operate more like professional poker players; Mike Trout’s boring effectiveness; and what one thing he wishes all Driveline trainees would walk in the door understanding, and why most of them never will.
