Episode Details

Justin Crawford, the Phillies Opening Day center fielder, is making a strong case for his spot with a .288 average, four doubles, a triple, and a stolen base in his first seventeen games. His ground-ball tendency limits power potential, but his speed and contact skills are reminiscent of Dee Strange-Gordon. Crawfords far-back stance makes outside pitches challenging, but his low bat intercept and opposite-field attack angle result in a low pull rate. He has solid plate discipline with a 7.4% walk rate and 22% strikeouts, but could unlock star potential by adjusting his stance or hunting deeper counts.
