Breakdown Blake Snell

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 21st among SP's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 491st.
  • The current leader among SP's is Logan Allen
  • Can't be doing much worse than he is right now. Failing to live up to expectations is one thing, but playing this bad is another.
  • Trending Pitching Stats

  • Top 100 in WHIP and is currently ranked 84th
  • Top 15 in ERA and is currently ranked 12th with 2.50
  • He walks a lot of batters and is currently ranked 1st with 62
  • He is among the best in wins and is currently ranked 8th with 10
  • His average points in the past two weeks have increased by 7.6 PPG. That is great, but how long can he perform at this level? If you don't have the confidence he can keep it up, then trade him for a sure thing.
  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: W: -14, L: -5, WHIP: +0.856, ERA: +9.892, K's: -222, Walks: -94
  • The season is still young, expect things to change quite a bit.
Breakdown Lance McCullers Jr.

    Overview

  • I couldn't find any stats of this player even playing a game in the past 60 days. This is most likely due to an injury or time in the minors.
