Tim Lincecum Pitch FX Breakdown
June 12th, 2008
After looking at the results of last nights’ game, I decided to do an analysis of Tim Lincecum. Little did I know that Kyle from Driveline Mechanics would also be analyzing Tim. Kyle’s excellent site focuses more on the scouting side of things notably mechanics, so I decided that going forward with my PFX analysis might help things.
First, I decided to focus only on starts at home, so that I could rule out inconsistencies in the accuracies of the PFX data between different parks. I came to this conclusion after reading around about the data needing adjustments and after Will Carroll from Baseball Prospectus did me the honor of looking at one of my previous posts and suggested to focus on one park in order to eliminate any inconsistencies between parks.
That game me about 600 pitches to analyze which I happily did.

After looking around several different blogs, I noticed that many blogs are going to tell you what players to pick up. I’m going to focus on a Buy Low/Sell High format for those 3-12 rounders that can make or break your season. On top of everything else, I will still be continuing to evaluate pitch F/X data on pitchers that as I deem necessary.
So with the first installment of Buy Low/Sell High I focused on Jason Giambi and John Lannan.

- Selective Streaming September 1, 2010For those of you who haven't listened to the last podcast first of all you should, but my topic was selective streaming. To follow up with that advice I wanted to start giving regular updates on whom to target for streaming. First, the list that I targeted on the show, based on widely available pitchers with K/9 around 6.5 or greater.Brandon MorrowJho […]Aaron Murray
- Roto Rundowns #16 - I Stream, You Stream... August 31, 2010Streaming pitchers is like fouling at the end of a basketball game; some people hate it, some love it. But no matter how you feel about the practice it's important not only to know when to stream and when not to but also who to stream and who not to. If you were waiting for the show in which I finally break down and give a list of players to target, […]Aaron Murray
- We've Still Got a Long Way to go, People August 29, 2010Take a look at a couple of pitchers currently available in more than half of Yahoo leagues,Pitcher A: K/9 7.86, BB/9 4.12Pitcher B: K/9 9.62, BB/9 4.24 Who would you rather own in a fantasy league? The first pitcher is Dice-K, started in 42% of leagues, the second in Joulys Chacin, started in just 7%. That's right, a guy with better than a K/inning an […]Aaron Murray
- Maximizing Scherzer August 27, 2010In his first eight starts this year Max Scherzer posted such poor numbers that he was sent down to AAA to work on his mechanics. His fastball had lost something and a break from the majors was in order, at least, that was the party line from the Tigers. And in this case it appears to have been correct. Scherzer's average fast ball before being sent d […]Aaron Murray
- Nine more Appearances and He'll be Outfielder Eligible August 25, 2010Like many, I'm a sucker for the oddities of baseball. Give me a highlight real of balks and inside the park home runs over grand slams and strikeouts any day. That's why, when I heard about Roy Oswalt's game last night I found all the video I could about it. To recap, in the 14th inning of a tie game Ryan Howard was ejected for arguing a ch […]Aaron Murray
