From Hey Bill:
Bill James On Andrew McCutchen
↵↵What’s up with Andrew McCutchen? He seems to be on pace for a historic season... He has 26 Win Shares in about half the season.
↵Well, you may remember that I told you guys in March that he was the most impressive player I had seen in spring training. Just incredible bat speed...
↵It’s a truism that a batter can’t catch up to a fastball above his hands... “The eyes say ‘yes, yes’, but the hands say ‘No, no’.” That’s what they teach young pitchers; the batter SEES the high fastball great, but he can’t get to it... McCutchen can.
