What is happening? Welcome to the Plus Pitch Podcast. More pitching podcast from PitcherList.com.

My name is Nick Pollock. Today we're going to talk about the Cincinnati Reds.

And yes, I am so far behind, but I'm here for you. Okay? We're going to get through these in the next two weeks.

We're just going to go one or two a day, maybe three. Get used to it. They're coming up fast. We've got the Cincinnati Reds. And, oh boy, Hunter Green, he had a 5.7 hip or nine with a 239 babbip last year.

I know I don't really talk about the hotel that much, but he cut his home run rate in half to 0.7 with a 7% home run for fly ball rate.

And he had an 80% left on base rate. I'm just gonna tell you right now It doesn't it doesn't add up

I Hunter Green's difference this past year was he added a little bit more horizontal movement on the slider which made it better

But the four seamer really wasn't very different maybe a little bit more

vertical break on it,

but it shouldn't have been enough to all of a sudden have a lot less ICR.

But the splitter, the splitter was barely thrown.

It was an 11% swing strike rate against lefties with a 14% putaway rate.

That's terrible.

And a 52% strike rate.

Like that was not a good pitch and against Arite's, it was still fastball slider.

It just doesn't add up to being the same season that you just had.

Right.

I mean, it was a really good season.

And I think he's closer to the 482 ERA and a 142 whip of 2023.

There's no way it's going to be 275.

He ran a 102 whip across 150 innings again.

That just can't happen.
