    sometimes LT is a bit stubborn and this is one of those times he should have listened to all of you

So it is not a physical issue. Here is a great read:

    The Change: What's Going On With Aaron Nola?

    And yes, Duffy grades out as the Kansas City ace at the current time.

    So league faced is not the issue, if he corrected his mechanics between starts and returns to form before last four starts, he should be fine. If not, AL or NL would not matter when sinker is right down the middle.

He still has a 3.16 FIP, 2.99 xFIP and 2.1 WAR, his great first 12 starts still outweigh the last 4. It is pretty amazing that he is still fifth in the Major Leagues in xFIP right now.

    The 7-strikeout qualifier weeds out guys like Phil Hughes that are always going to have great K/BB ratios because they do not walk anyone but whose stuff is not really all that great.

    i get that Nola's advanced stats grade him as a really good pitcher and that's why you're making plays on him, but what do you think is the cause of the disparity between his ERA and xfip. Forgive me if im not extremely knowledgeable of sabermetrics but I would think this disparity is caused by his high BABIP against (.328). Well, cant we look at Eickhoff's and Velasquez's BABIP againsts (.299 and .321, respectively) and just kinda assume that the Phillies are a bad defensive team and that high number wont normalize, therefore were stuck with an underperforming Nola? IDK if that makes sense at all, it does in my head. would love to get your take on it
    Quote Originally Posted by LT Profits View Post

    High K/BB ratio can overcome defense. Nola also has a good ground ball rate of 55.6 percent and his hard-hit ball rate is only a reasonable 26.9 percent, so it is not as if he is allowing a lot of hard-hit ground balls that require infielders to have great range.

    Hey LT, with all the line movement did Mets close high enough that they should've been a play? Or too much variance with line and model?
