Week 10 was all about continuing to push toward making those final adjustments before the end of summer! For some, that means putting the finishing touches to be ready to compete during their fall season

Not the results Brenan Hanifee wanted last night but the underlying metrics are right in line with what I am looking for. He had 3 whiffs (2 slider, 1 4-Seam), a 40% K rate on the night and a -2.90 FIP

A great outing for Brenan Hanifee last night as he went 1 IP with 0 ER and 2 Ks! He was able to set up hitters in his outing to get both Ks. Brenanβs sinker continues to be gross and heβs starting to execute it really well
