Slow-Starting Hitters, Roster Shrinkage Fallout & Joe Ryan Defies the Model

Rates & Barrels: A show about Baseball

Eno and DVR discuss several slow-starting bats and try to determine where there are opportunities to make viable trades, and where the early downturn in performance might be a warning sign of a disappointing 2022 season. Plus, they discuss some of the fallout from rosters shrinking, and Joe Ryan's success despite underwhelming pitching model numbers.
