Donovan
Posted: 23 Jul 2025 22:04 pm
On the Rockies telecast last night, it was mentioned that Donovan had more hits than swings and misses this season. I thought that was interesting.

How do you measure that?

Baseball savant shows 1,536 pitches with a 13% whiff %
That's 201 swing and misses
He has 107 hits

Contact percentage is the number of times donovan has swung and missed.
Donovan has faced 1536 pitches, not donovan has swing at 1536 pitches.
Many were balls or called strikes. Donovan has only swung at 579 pitches it says as thats how many competitive swing he has. 13% whiff rate of 569 swings would only be 76 swing and misses
Good work by all as that is a neat stat. Another reason why I play him at second and JJ at third next year.Wattage wrote: ↑24 Jul 2025 00:35 ammath doesnt work the way you are calculating.scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑23 Jul 2025 22:41 pmExplainrightthinker4 wrote: ↑23 Jul 2025 22:34 pmInteresting, but not accurate.scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑23 Jul 2025 22:25 pmHow do you measure that?
