What is happening.

Welcome to another episode of The Craft.

My name is Nick Pollock, and I got to ramble.

I got to rant.

I got to talk about specific pictures and I got to figure out what I should do.

So I called the Bino.

Eno.

Thank you so much for joining me as a special guest today on The Craft.

Oh, you're welcome for having me.

I am so thankful. And that was a weird phrase. I was like, I am welcome. Okay, okay, cool.

Don't worry. My brain is mush. There are two guys I have to talk about with you right away, two.

Are you going to right now in your 12 teamers

add Griffin Jacks or Zebby Matthews?

That's an interesting one because Zebby is weird.

Yeah.

I mean, he's worse.

He's worse. Yeah. I mean, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, one thing I noticed in the minor leagues was that he didn't have a pitch that was above average by stuff plus against opposite handed hitters. Oh. Yeah. So he doesn't. And if you think about it, you're like, oh, yeah, that's right. He's like a bunch of breaking balls guys, the guy, and the change-ups not that good. But he is locating really well for the first time. I'm going to, I'm a stuffist. I'm going to go with Jacks. One thing that I really like about Jacks is that the Ks came in the last time. Oh, man. Yeah. I've been really wondering where those Ks had gone. I've been worried that it was shape fatigue on the sweeper and that people were just not going to strike out on his sweeper anymore. But I don't think that was the case. So you mean shape fatigue as in like the league is used to sweepers now?

And then maybe his. I mean, oh, I see. Okay. Have people seen it enough at this point? I mean, his is a very hard specific sweeper. So you, you reminded me of a really dumb theory I have, you know? I love these. These are the best ones, right? Nick's got a dumb theory. Okay? I was thinking about some of the guys who are overperforming this year, right? And you might not believe this, but right now, Kamar Rocker has like a 360 array. Right. Yeah, but he has like a 140 whip, but he has a 360 array.

You have Bryce Elder.

You had Justin Rebleski, right?

And, I mean, there are a couple others you could throw into this mix, Nick Martinez.

And I started to think to myself, a lot of these, I mean, including Nick Martinez, are like 92, 93 with bad shape fastballs
