,Keider Montero’s slider rate has decreased by 6.1% from last season to this one (23.7% to 17.6%) .

,With a 0.49 disparity between Parker Messick’s 9.73 K/9 and his 9.24 estimated true talent K/9 (via the leading projection system, THE BAT), it’s safe to say he’s been one of the luckiest pitchers in baseball this year in terms of strikeouts and should see worse results the rest of the season.
