  • Leveraging Pitcher-Batter Matchups for Optimal Game Strategy
    Leveraging Pitcher-Batter Matchups for Optimal Game Strategy Paper Track: Baseball Paper ID: 13603 Willie K. Harrison∗ and John L. Salmony ∗Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, Brigham Young University yDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Brigham Young University 1. Introduction Recent play in Major League Baseball (MLB) has showcased many attempts to achieve an advantage through smart selection of pitcher-batter matchups. One such case in the 2018 postseason had the Los Angeles Dodgers’ manager, Dave Roberts, selecting an all right-handed batting lineup to face both Chris Sale and David Price in games one and two of the World Series. Both pitchers are left-handed, and the choice certainly tailors to the well-known lefty-righty handedness matchup strategy [10]. Further- more, this choice was inline with the platoon system that the Dodgers had employed throughout the 2018 regular season [15], often starting all right-handed batting lineups against left-handed starters, seemingly with great success. Although attempts have been made to optimize pitcher-batter matchup strategies in the sabermet- rics [2, 7, 9] literature (e.g., [5, 6]), these approaches have tended to apply averages of large data sets in an attempt to ��ine tune some matchup data. For example, Hirotsu and Wright used the handedness (i.e., left handed or right handed) of both the pitcher and the batter to adjust average batting statistics in an attempt to optimize the choice of pitcher substitution [6]. In this approach, if a batter’s dominant hand is opposite to that of a pitcher’s dominant hand, then the offensive statistics of the batter are as- sumed to be enhanced slightly for that speciic matchup.

  • PITCHING,BATTING,FIELDING RATINGS Explained
    Arm Rating Page 1 of 1 Arm Rating [Arm] An APBA rating measuring the throwing ability of a player. Range is from 20 to 40, higher being better. Affects the ability of a player, especially an outfielder, to obtain assists in throwing out advancing base runners. Runners attempting to advance extra bases against fielders with high arm ratings do so at their peril. mk:@MSITStore:C:\Program%20Files%20(x86)\APBA%20Games\Baseball\WinLM.chm... 5/12/2020 Batting Characteristic Page 1 of 1 Batting Characteristic [Plat] An APBA rating of a batter's hitting tendency. There are four types: SA Straight Away PL Pulls Left PR Pulls Right PB Pulls Both (a switch hitting pull hitter) The Platoon rating (Plat) will tend to effect the direction the ball will take when it is hit by the batter. For example, a PL batter may have a higher double play frequency, because he rarely hits balls into the hole between first and second base, and because he bats right, he has farther to go to reach first base and his momentum is not in that direction, as it is for a left-handed batter.

The Tigers’ left-handed starting pitcher was present Sunday afternoon at Joker Marchant Stadium, working out on the back fields as the team’s pitchers continue to trickle in ahead of Thursday’s pitchers and catchers reporting date. “Really exciting times,” Norris said. “As soon as I hit the road, I started getting excited about the upcoming season.” He is clear of the thyroid cancer he was diagnosed with last season after a successful surgery to remove a malignant growth, and he has been in Lakeland since the end of January. Parked next to the team’s minor league clubhouse was his road companion, a cream-colored 1978 Volkswagen van. Inside was an orange surfboard. Outside, he talked about the differences and similarities between entering camp this spring and last.
