Is the hitting better in the Big 12 Conference better than the hitting in Minor League 'A' ball, or is it due to the aluminum bats that the hitters use in NCAA compared to the wood bats used in the pros.
Allow me to explain.
Chat Bettis, the Rockies hot shot rookie starting pitcher prospect makes his major league debut tonight.
He pitched for Texas Tech for three seasons (he was one of the best HS pitchers in Texas out of Lubbock), he pitched in 'A' and 'AA' ball for three seasons.
Event though he was a highly touted HS prospect, his numbers pitching for Texas Tech (where he was both a starter and a closer) weren't that great.
I am not going to type in the numbers, I will post the chart here instead.
I like to get scouting reports and stuff on hot shot prospects when the get called up to the show, so I have an idea as to what expect.
What I see is an impressive K ratio, but what sticks out are how he got hit pretty good in college, but his numbers are so much better once he got to the pro minor leagues.
I have a theory, could it be the hitters in college have an advantage using the aluminum bats over the kids in the minors using wood bats????
Also, check out how each year he got better too.
