Carson Cistulli has published a book of aphorisms called Spirited Ejaculations of a New Enthusiast.
I suppose a link to the SBNation piece by Jason Turbow that inspired the interview and gets more in-depth on effective velocity would be helpful as well: http://www.sbnation.com/longform/2014/6/18/5818380/effective-velocity-pitching-theory-profile-perry-husband
*warning, the link does not open new browser and forced me to reload the audio and intro etc…
This was very cool! It’s very interesting to hear about this theory in the pitcher’s own words.
This makes me wonder if Bauer will improve with age, becoming a great pitcher only in his early/mid-30s.
Very, very interesting stuff.
Really interesting listen – thanks for this.
that was so much fun, thank you.
would love to see fangraphs do more with EV. analysis of great pitchers or great outings from am EV perspective? at bats with pitch by pitch gifs showing how Trevor trips up the competition’s timing?
This was a tremendous interview. Interesting guy.
