admin Site Manager Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/tracking-r-a-dickeys-knuckleball/ Pretty good article. The gifs with the velocity difference are pretty cool. The only thing I don't like about it, is it's obviously a small sample size. ie how often are they like that at these different speeds? However, I think it hits on a point I mentioned earlier in the year. With the decrease in velocity, it appears to be more wild. With the higher velocity it still has very good sporadic movement, but not as wide of a range. I think that is why Dickey is on pace to double his walk rate from last year.
