He struggled with a 6.49 ERA, and never established himself as a starter. Despite this, the Mariners draft Bryan Woo decision has been huge for the franchise. The 2021 MLB Draft featured a lot of early "busts," but a 6th round pick like Bryan Woo has been great. And that's because Mariners Trent Blank, director of pitching strategy, advocated for his selection. Some topics discussed in this video include: Vertical Approach Angle baseball (VAA for short), baseball arm angles and baseball arm slots, and baseball analytics, especially those captured by platforms like Rapsodo baseball, Trackman baseball, and Statcast Hawk-Eye baseball. And all taken into account in the Trent Blank Bryan Woo decision. I hope not just Seattle Mariners pitching fans or college baseball fans, but fans of all MLB will enjoy this episode of Baseball Bits, a baseball video essay series. _______________________________________________ Adam Jude on Trent Blank: https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2024/jul/13/how-mariners-pitching-pipeline-mines-mlb-draft-for/ Baseball America 2021 Draft rankings: https://www.baseballamerica.com/rankings/2021-mlb-draft-best-available-prospects-remaining/ Ted Williams "The Science of Hitting": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJ5iiaF-T3I Soundtrack by William Kage: https://www.williamkage.com
