RotoGraphs Audio: Field of Streams 5/12/2015

Episode 27 – The Vedder Cup

The latest episode of “Field of Streams” is live!

In this episode, Dylan Higgins and Brad Johnson discuss The Vedder Cup, still not believing in Nick Martinez and other pitchers with poor peripherals, evaluating hitters who are underrated based on their pitcher-friendly home park, Noah Syndergaard’s debut, hoping for Mike Napoli to turn things around, the ambiguous sustainability of Dee Gordon’s early success, Troy Tulowitzki looking particularly human, not being ready to jump off Chris Sale’s bandwagon, and pitchers with high velocities that are not notching many strikeouts.

Contest pick for Tuesday, May 12: Noah Syndergaard @ CHC (Dylan and Matt).

Contest pick for Wednesday, May 13: Jimmy Nelson vs. CWS (Dylan and Matt).
