Here are ten interesting notes that Remarkable served up for today around MLB, featuring Rhys Hoskins, Corey Kluber, and a few struggling offenses…
RHYS HOSKINS IS NOT MISSING FASTBALLS
He’s worthy of four notes, so here they are:
- Hoskins has missed just 2 times in 28 swings (7.1%) on inside fastballs (League Avg: 15.2%).
- He has missed just 2 times in 29 swings (6.9%) on high fastballs (League Avg: 25.2%).
- He has missed just 3 times in 31 swings (9.7%) on fastballs away (League Avg: 21.3%).
Hoskins shown chasing (and missing) a pitch during spring training. He’s not missing much now.
4. One of the most impressive things about Hoskins‘ home run barrage is how many have come with two strikes. Would you believe just one fewer than Stanton? https://twitter.com/InsideEdgeScout/status/902249904801669121.

5. Surprising streak of the day: Corey Kluber has allowed at least one HR in each of his last 8 games dating back to July 15th (this is the longest active streak).

8. The Blue Jays have scored first in just 33.3% of their home games (22/66) this season (Rank: 29th of 30 in MLB; League Avg: 43.6%).
