Is Scott Kazmir Returning To Form? - DRaysBay
This is a great use of pitch f/x to help understand a unique pitcher. There are only two graphs and they're simple. We're not overloaded with data, just the data that ends up being important and it's presented in a way where we can draw obvious conclusions. The article almost reads like a scouting report, because, well, that's actually what it is. But instead of using his eyes, RJ uses the data. Robot eyes, perhaps?
Now, at the end, we're left wanting more information -- more splits, more breakdowns, more analysis. That's ok, though. The sign of a great article is when you want more. It's a blog, there's going to be more.

Yeah, oops, nice job, Tommy.
I usually don’t like to give RJ even the credit he actually deserves.
