WBC Tiny Sample Size Fun

Based on Pitch f/x from Felix's game today:

Obviously this is his first start of the WBC so its not that helpful though its probably more helpful than a Spring start since he's almost certainly pitching to win more than he would in ST. Looks like the difference between his fastball and offspeed suff is the same as ever in any case... only 1 ball in play that wasn't a grounder though, admittedly against Italy (which conversely makes the fastball's lack of swinging strikes look even worse).

(I'm guessing it got his 2-seamer and changeup mixed up as splitters and sinkers but I don't know for sure. 'Splitter' averaged 88.25 mph, 7.75 brk, 10 pfx while 'Sinker' was 85.6, 11.4, 7.6, and 'Changeup' was 87, 8.5, 4.5.).

...Yeah I'm bored waiting for the season to start.
