The Jake McGee player development case study

Feature article: Does free-agent reliever Jake McGee fit into the Dodgers’ plans for 2021? | Los Angeles Times

On Saturday, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times published a piece outlining the future in Los Angeles for ex-Rockie Jake McGee: “A full season of Dodgers analytics might complete his career revival, at a low free-agent cost.”

It is time to be intimidated by these Dodger pitching analytics before they snatch up Wade Davis, too.

McGee was released by the Rockies just days before the 2020 season began. He still had one year remaining on a three-year, $27 million contract, and Colorado would soon pay him in that final year to pitch against them.
