Spin rates on fastballs - Hoofhearted - 10-11-2018

Found a really cool article about "spin rates" on fastballs, and where each team ranks (not surprising, the reds are dead last).

I wonder if the Reds track this sort of data?

Interesting

Seems like the Reds are behind in this stuff no doubt.

I am pretty sure that even the teams that don't base all of their decisions on these type of metrics still look closely at every single bit of information available.
