Hello and welcome to Talking Yanks. It's the Sharp Stats episode. Time to get smart. My name's Jimmy. I got Jake as always, producer BBD as always, and as always. On Sharp Stats, we are joined by the Queen of Stats.

Katie, how are you today?

I've been better, fellas. I'm sure you guys have been better too. But we are sitting here on Thursday afternoon recording this.

And not only is Yankee Twitter in sort of a mess, but kind of the whole world's a mess right now, or at least in the United States.

We are hoping for better times ahead for both our Yankees and for our country. But I'm hopefully, you know, we'll leave here with a little optimism, but also put you got put puts in perspective on the season and perspective on what's happening around and you know, make everybody a little bit smarter.

That's the goal. I think we all we all need a little perspective in and outside of Yankees world. But yeah, it's it's funny Yankees Twitter is having a bad time and they should to a degree, but not as bad of a time as they're having and I think we'll talk about that a little bit. But yeah, I did see someone.

And it was the first, I guess, smirk I got was someone did the five times 2.7 is what's that 13ish 13 loss. So they were like that would that would be the longest losing streak since like the 80s or something like that. And I was like, all right.

So we're doing this kind of thing. So and you know what I think tomorrow when I wake up, I'm hoping that this weekend, the perfect dose of medicine is a little Met Space Ball for us. So hopefully that'll straighten things out. But yeah, yeah.

Yeah, the trolls are I mean, they're coming after they're coming after boom. They're even coming after cashman now. I got I got that on my mentions.

Oh, yeah. So I don't have to tell where that's going. But yeah, I mean, you just got to wake up on Friday and just hey, hey, it's a new series, a new team to play.

And we got five games to flush it all out. So I mean, that's that's at least some good news.

There's there's other good news that maybe we'll do a little bit of, but the best news of the off season Garrett call joining the Yankees turns out his most recent starts a bummer, Katie.

I don't know what you have for us. You were discussing topics and I kind of wanted to know, you know, the home run numbers for call right now are crazy.

But the home run numbers don't kill you. You know, we've referenced Berlin or winning the Saiyong with the most home runs. But is this who he's always been.

Is this a different call like what do you got on Garrett called the home runs and his performance thus far.

Yeah, I mean, obviously you guys have noted those numbers. He does give up more than his fair share of home runs. Like last year, we'll say he gave up 29 home runs.

He's up to 10 this year, though. But it is a little bit concerning for me. And one of the one of the stats that has been out there on Twitter a lot is that 13 of his 16 runs that he've given up have been versus home runs. Right.

So that's 81% and that that's actually incredibly high. So even last year when he was giving up all those runs and you figure, oh, well, if you give lots of home runs, then, you know, a lot of those home runs will be towards his runs run total.

But last year, only 33 of the 66 runs that he gave up were on home runs.

So that's because he did he gave up 25 solo home runs. So really.

Yep. And the so that's about half.

So again, 20 last last year, he gave up 25 solo home runs out of his 29 total.
