Bleis has something in his swing that is causing over half his fly balls to be on the infield. His 25% LD and 38% GB are great, but needs to figure out the popups.

Augusta has one of the best camera angles I've ever seen. Going to get a beautiful view of all the pitchers.

Perales gives up his first HR of the year to the leadoff batter. There's a contingent of Sox development staff in Greenville for this series.

Absolute missile home run from Jhostynxon Garcia. He's over 350 Salem PA now, and he's raking.

Just a silly exercise, but there is really only one MLB match to those three metrics BA listed for Anthony so far
111 90th, 23% Chase, 85% In-Zone Contact – Acuña Jr. 2023 110 90th, 21% Chase, 83% In-zone Contact – Anthony so far

Jordan has the second-lowest pitches/PA in the Sox system (Ravelo), and one of the lowest in minor league baseball. That severely hinders his one great tool and makes the rest of his data look funny. When the pitch metrics updates start leaking out, I'm sure the guys on the podcast will have some less than flatting numbers to share, but that's just a guess.

I just watched his last two outings and the fastball is good, 95 with a bit above average IVB, straight, from an average release height. It does have a good Whiff %, 13th/137 in AAA (min 100 4-seamers).
His cutter/slider/sweeper thing(s) is just a muddled mess coming out of his hand. His curveball looks better than that, but nothing great and not much swing and miss so far.
The way you read about him, I was thinking it was going to be insane stuff with buckshot accuracy, but it seems less interesting than that after a quick look.

Here are players in the BA Top 50 that has more than a 10 spot difference in rank with the MLB list Going the other way, BA91/MLB18 Ryan Sloan (HS, Wake Forrest commit pitcher) is the notable difference.

Watching Fitts, his changeup is a mess. He commands his fastball and slider well, but the slider is playing more like a contact pitch. Very little swing and miss. A bunch of hard hit in the air contact allowed today, thankfully for him, it's cold.

Meidroth: 40 batted balls, 13 hard hit (9 grounders), top 5 EVs: 108, 105, 105, 105, 102
Hickey is 13/39, he gets almost all his hard hit balls elevated in the sweet spot, though.
Romy, Kavadas, Contreras all posting around 50% Hard Hit rates so far.

The problem with Meidroth is his BB% is going to tumble in MLB and can he do enough damage to keep a pitcher honest. Ugly quality of contract so far.

I know he's a graduated guy, but Kelly has got rid of his old slider it seems and has instead gone to a cutter and what looks like a huge sweeper. 9 IP, 1 H, 8 BB, 10 K

After watching a lot of Bleis before he got hurt last year, this year looks like a totally different player
