[Sports Info Solutions]Stat of the Week: 2024’s Most Underachieving Hitters? (TJ Friedl alert)
3 comments
Hi, just wanted to share this here = TJ Friedl made our list of hitters who deserved better based on their “expected stats” in 2024.
The article explains it a little bit, but the gist of it is that we (Sports Info Solutions) have our own version of expected stats based on – among other things- where you hit the ball and how hard you hit it (a little different than Baseball Savant methodology) and when we look at Friedl- his numbers should have been better … and the reason why was that defenses did a good job against him.
Any questions, feel free to ask …
Seemed to me that he made alot of good contact, just hit alot of line drives straight at outfielders…. gotta find a way to get them in the gap
He kept getting thrown off by injury. Every time he started heating up it seemed like he went back on the 10 day.
