In this episode of Data Dump, we dive into Zac Veen’s recent AAA surge and what’s changed since his rocky big league stint. While the surface stats look promising — a 105 wRC+, improved ISO, and better K/BB rates — his issues with elevated fastballs still raise red flags? We dissect his swing decisions, zone contact rates, and plate discipline to see if this version of Veen is sustainable.Then, it’s draft time. We break down two lefty college arms — Jamie Arnold vs. Liam Doyle — and stack up their raw stuff, pitch shapes, and how each might (or might not) translate at Coors. Is Doyle’s elite fastball and five-pitch mix worth the risk? Is Arnold’s CH/SL combo a safer fit?We wrap with a look at Aiva Arquette, a big-bodied, power-hitting shortstop who might remind Rockies fans of a certain franchise icon. Does the pop and glove profile fit what this org needs?🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up? Check out StreamYard and get $10 discount! 😍 https://streamyard.com/pal/d/6675237337563136

In this episode of Data Dump, we break down two of the most intriguing Rockies storylines using advanced stats and sharp insight.🚨 Tyler Freeman is showing elite bat-to-ball skills since arriving in Colorado. With one of the lowest whiff rates in MLB and a disciplined approach at the plate, could Freeman be more than just a stopgap? We explore his expected stats, contact profile, and why his gameplan is so consistent.🔥 Germán Márquez is quietly piecing together a solid comeback. With a dominant curveball and a contract set to expire, is he one of the most underrated trade chips on the market? We dig into his pitch metrics, strike rates, and compare him to other potential trade deadline arms.🔍 Get into the numbers with us and see why both players are worth watching closely as the season unfolds.#ColoradoRockies #TylerFreeman #GermanMarquez #RockiesBaseball #MLBStats #TradeDeadline #AdvancedStats #BaseballPodcast #DataDump #RockiesProspects🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

In this episode of Banter Sessions, we sit down with Colorado Rockies pitching prospect Bryson Hammer to talk about his wild baseball journey — from redshirting at Clemson, to dominating JUCO hitters at Catawba Valley, to finding his groove at Dallas Baptist University before being selected in the 12th round of the MLB Draft.We also get into his 2024 season, which started in the ACL and has now taken him to Spokane via Fresno — what’s behind all the movement, and how has he handled the grind? Plus, we dive into his pitch mix, development philosophy, and the fact that the Rockies had three Hammers in three years — coincidence or conspiracy?🔨 Don’t miss this look into Bryson’s mindset, arsenal, and what it’s really like working through the minors.🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

So why did MLB hitters get to him?Top-percentile extension is a big factorAbove-average strike throwing and whiff ratesBut his fastball is getting crushed, and MLB O-Swing% dropped sharplyWe break it all down—no vibes, just data.🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
