IM. AN. AGA. Seriously, Aces Gonna Ace. I can't deny it any longer given his electric start to the year and how few reliable starters there are. His four-seamer precision upstairs is bonkers and his splitter was a major player once again in a tough environment inside Fenway. I still can't believe the Cubs got such a deal when they signed him this off-season.

He's doing a phenomenal job of keeping his four-seamer upstairs, just as we wanted him to when he signed in the off-season. Today came with seven splitter whiffs as well, though I'm still hoping to see more of his curve and sweeper in future outings. I still believe he'll need that extra reliable breaker for strikes in the future. I'm not quite ready to give him the AGA tag that his last name demands until I see something more dependable in his secondaries, but then again, Joe Ryan got his with a similar makeup, right? Let's wait until Shōta gets the Astros next at the very least.

We're thrilled he still hasn't allowed an ER and sealed a Win, but this wasn't Shōta domination deserving of his shirt. Solid four-seamer locations upstairs, though 1/22 splitter whiffs after earning twelve in his debut outing should outline some of the volatility we could see this year. I personally would like more than seven breaking balls featured, especially if his heater is capable of starts like these where it went just 3/61 whiffs.

Shōta was making a statement through four with a whopping 34/43 pitches coming via the four-seamer as he painted the top of the zone. RAIN, WHY ARE YOU THE WAY YOU ARE. So life can exist. Well okay, that checks out.

His name is Shōta Im An AGA. Yes, we already made the shirt for it. I want to note, this "Gallows Pole" had plenty of Blame it on the Rockies involved as he tossed 5.2 frames of perfection. His sweeper was good, not elite, and his four-seamer returned a sub 10% SwStr rate, failing to truly overpower batters with its 92/93 mph velocity (down to 90/91 by the end). Yes, the splitter was filthy and returned a dumb 50% SwStr rate with 12 whiffs, though I have to wonder if his fastball will get hit much harder by tougher opponents. At least he is elevating the pitch in the zone as we all dreamed he would when he signed. That's a lovely thing.
