SP Roundup September 28, 2023 3.2 IP, ER, 0 Hits, BB, 2 Ks - 4 Whiffs, 25.0% CSW, 64 pitches vs. CHC (ND)

Sure, it was the limited pitch count we anticipated but did you know his fastball sat over two ticks up? We're talking 96.5 mph out of NOWHERE. And how did it perform? 0/28 whiffs. NICK. Hey, 13 foul balls! Those could have been whiffs! He got a ton of vertical break, too! He just didn't locate them effectively! THERE'S HOPE. On the real, if AJSS is pumping 96/97 mph in the spring and has his slider and changeup sitting low, you bet your bottom dollar I'm jumping on that train. Starting with regularity for Atlanta is a wonderful thing.

I have to mention that pitching in Great American Small Park against one of the hottest teams in the majors isn't ideal. That said, AJSS did not pitch well here with his secondaries - change, curve, slider - returning just a 43% strike rate. It forced him to throw terrible fastballs and it was rough. I don't think this is the guy we'll see all the time and I also think it's a tough gamble to expect a full recovery so soon for the 20-year-old.

That's a "Philly" but you got the Win, and the 17 whiffs should make you raise an eyebrow. Was it the four-seamer or the slider? Neither as each earned four. The curve? Nah, just three. Instead, it was the changeup earning 6/8 whiffs after throwing just six total in his first two games. I dug this outing a lot more from AJSS than last time as his four-seamer lived far more inside the zone and his secondaries were consistently in the lower half. There are still some adjustments to make with the exact approach as he chucked a ton of middle-middle heaters, but maybe it's a "Zac Gallen" approach in the end, relying on low called strikes with his heater and secondaries below it. It may be enough to hold him for another start against the Reds, even if the whiff total should be lower as he won't replicate the same changeup efficiency. I'm intrigued.

SP Roundup June 9, 2023 5.1 IP, 0 ER, 3 Hits, 2 BBs, 2 Ks - 6 Whiffs, 20.9% CSW, 86 pitches vs. WSH (ND)

The buzz of the week has been AJ Smith-Shawver getting an aggressive promotion from Atlanta and after a 2.1 IP relief appearance, he got his first start for the club against the Nationals on Friday evening. The result? Nothing to get excited about: 5.1 IP, 0 ER, 3 Hits, 2 BBs, 2 Ks - 6 Whiffs, 21% CSW, 86 pitches.
I've seen some comparisons to Spencer Strider for a few reasons: Atlanta, starting off as a reliever, and being four-seamer + slider. The difference? AJSS doesn't have an elite four-seamer (92.4 mph!) and his slider isn't all that great. Well, I don't want to completely lean into those statements as it's incredibly hard to tell what would happen if he actually had good command, but what I saw yesterday were these moments of "oh hey, that's a great pitch!" followed by a slider that slips out or a heater that lands far from where he intended.
I wonder what the fastball approach is that would lock him in. Is it the Zac Gallen approach of low heaters or the Strider "BSB" locations? Either way it requires a whole makeover of fastball ability + a slider that actually finds strikes instead of the 14/35 strike rate we saw yesterday...but then again, there has to have been jitters here and he could pitch again next week against "Rockie Road" with a different energy. He is just 20 years old, after all. And I really did dig his presence on the mound with a heater that feels like it plays better than the low velocity. It's just hard for me to lean in heavily with a two-pitch pitcher (well, he did have a changeup that returned a few outs and for some reason, Savant doesn't want to acknowledge it) that comes with the usual floor of a prospect arm without something that blows me away.
So we hold for "Rockie Road" and take it from there. One last thing, sorry about the deke in the headline. I just found it hilarious despite not being how I actually feel about him.
