I have sooooooooo been waiting for baseball!!!!
Now, watching the spring training games, I was really impressed by a lefty non-roster player: Lucas Luetge
So far.....unhittable....eight kills.
"Zack Britton is injured, and he’s going to miss a significant amount of time. The Yankees need a reliever to step up and fill in his shoes, and they might have their guy.
Luetge’s curveball looks fictional, with unreal movement. It has been unhittable so far. It’s not at all an exaggeration to say it’s been absolutely devastating. He complements this pitch with a fastball that in Spring Training so far has averaged 2,770 RPM. This is way up from his around 2,500 RPM average, meaning the Gas Station certainly has him cooking. His curveball also jumped to 2,866 RPM.
....higher spin rate can generate more swings and misses and become harder to hit. If Luetge can keep that fastball working and break off more nasty curveballs, we’re in for a treat.
...his stuff and analytical data so far are jumping off the screen. He’s a delight to watch pitch, and I highly recommend you all to keep an eye on him when he pitches."
