Analytics are becoming increasingly important in evaluating pitchers. How do you think advanced metrics like FIP and WHIP have changed the way we look at pitchers? Do you think these stats accurately reflect a pitcher’s success?

I’ve seen how analytics revolutionize pitching. Metrics like spin rate, launch angle, and pitch tunneling help pitchers optimize their arsenal. For example, Gerrit Cole’s transformation with the Astros showcased how data-driven adjustments can elevate performance. Analytics isn’t just a tool; it’s reshaping how pitchers dominate in modern baseball.
