No Safe Word posted:seems like he's just not a good team leader I guess Even 3 years ago he was pitching deeper into games than he does now. In 2017 & 2018 he pitched into the 8th inning about 1/3rd of the time (19/63), since then only thrice in 46 starts. That's not entirely on him, it's just how starters get used these days. And since he's 33 and throwing harder than he's ever thrown while remaining the best pitcher in baseball over that stretch, it's hard to really fault the Mets... except for that 36-42 record when he starts.

I just checked Fangraphs on deGrom's fastball velocity. When he came up as a 26 year old he averaged 93.5 mph on his fastball. Four years later, in his first Cy Young season, it had jumped to 96 mph. So far this year, three years later, it's averaging 99.1 MPH. I can't recall another pitcher adding 5.5 MPH on their fastball as they get into their 30s.

It's not like Lo Duca went on ESPN or a game broadcast and made the claim to potentially millions of viewers, he made a comment in some rinky dink sports betting podcast.

He was never home plate ump in a game where Lo Duca caught Wagner, so it was obvious the story was bullshit from the beginning.

Ah so it was just being lazy he's being punished for, not actually defaming a dude whose reputation presumably can't really get any worse and faced literally no monetary losses because of a spurious accusation? I mean don't get me wrong I'm all for true things I just wish I didn't so strongly dislike everyone involved.

In 2017 MLB went from pitchf/x to Statcast and the speed of the ball started to be measured out of the hand instead of at some point closer to the plate. That accounts for some of the velocity gains. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/about-all-these-velocity-spikes/

Remember the softball mound is only 43 feet, so as far as the hitter's reaction time is concerned, a 70 mph softball pitch is like a 100 mph baseball pitch. The bigger ball helps but those ladies who can regularly get past 70 mph are usually freakishly dominant. In related news Jennie Finch destroying Pujols and Piazza is one of my favorite things.

I'm sure the pandemic had some impact on the Ricketts' Wrigleyville cashflow but there is zero chance all that stuff isn't a moneymaking machine generally and in the long term. In particular it's one that will make more money if the team is good but which is shielded from MLB revenue sharing.
