In the second episode of this limited series of Defensive Indifference: A 2080 Baseball Podcast, co-hosts Ryan Sullivan and John Eshleman are back to discuss John’s first week of AFL action, highlighted by lights-out Astros hurler Forrest Whitley. They proceed to talk about valuing fastballs, both in a vacuum and as part of the whole repertoire, before discussing how the AFL context influences defensive grades. Tangents abound.
