Teoscar Hernandez's Home Run Derby Win, Yearly Changes in Pull Rate & Bidding Frenzies
Eno and DVR discuss Teoscar Hern\xe1ndez's Home Run Derby win, and how he's managed to do so much more at the plate than Adolis Garc\xeda despite similar strikeout, walk and barrel rates. Plus, they look at spray angles for hitters, and wonder if Anthony Volpe might put everything together in the final two-and-a-half months of the season.\xa0\n\nRundown\n1:23 Teoscar Hern\xe1ndez Wins the 2024 Home Run Derby\n10:42 Adolis Garc\xeda as a Failed Comp\n16:36 Year-to-Year Changes in Pull Rate\n20:24 Can Anthony Volpe Consolidate 2023 & 2024 Approaches?\n30:10 Kevin Gausman: Trusting Recent Success?\n34:35 Clayton Kershaw's Velocity Returning in Rehab Starts?\n36:36 How to Manage Luis Gil & Other Potential Workload Restrictions for SPs\n44:58 Is MJ Melendez Pulling Us Back In\n49:59 Rates & Barrels Listener Check-In\n52:12 Where the Money Went: Hunter Harvey, Rece Hinds & Lawrence Butler\n1:02:23 Intriguing Drops: Edward Cabrera, Colton Cowser & David Fry\n\nFollow Eno on Twitter: @enosarris\nFollow DVR on Twitter: @DerekVanRiper\ne-mail: ratesandbarrels@gmail.com\n\nJoin our Discord: https://discord.gg/FyBa9f3wFe\n\nJoin us on Thursdays at 1p ET/10a PT for our livestream episodes!\n\nSubscribe to The Athletic: theathletic.com/ratesandbarrels\n\nHosts: Derek VanRiper & Eno Sarris\n\nExecutive Producer: Derek VanRiper\nLearn more about your ad choices.
