The pipeline over the last three or so weeks has been far better than it had been before this season. It's been similar parts better pitching and better hitting. Early in the season, up until a month ago, it was commonplace to have seven or eight Myrtle Beach hitters hitting below the .200 mark. On Sunday, only one hitter was hitting below .200. The pipeline has become far more enjoyable recently.
I've said very little here about Bryce Ball here, though I’ve been a bit active on Twitter. It's curious how people can shade perceptions based on their desired end-result.
