Splash Considerations Ep. 8: That's the Good Stuff+
Q: Where can listeners find your work?
Thomas shares his site tjstats.ca and his Twitter/Bluesky presence under the same handle, inviting listeners to explore his articles and player pages.
Splash Considerations Ep. 8: That's the Good Stuff+
Q: What have you been liking about Keaton Winn and his stuff, specifically the splitter and velocity changes?
Thomas details Winn's return of a dominant splitter, the improved consistency of its shape, and how a higher velocity fastball pairs with that pitch to create a potent, unpredictable arsenal.
Splash Considerations Ep. 8: That's the Good Stuff+
Q: Just I'm kind of curious, what is your origin story with TJ Stats?
Thomas explains growing up in Toronto, his shift from hockey to data-driven baseball analysis, his engineering background, and how COVID gave him time to dive deep into the vast baseball data and build TJ Stats into a platform many in the Giants organization consult.
Splash Considerations Ep. 1: Hayden Birdsong Seeks Second Opinion on Arm Injury + Bullpen Outlook (feat. Maria I. Guardado)
Q: Where do you think Bryce Eldridge will start the season?
There's a strong likelihood Eldridge begins in Sacramento to continue his development, though there's a compelling case for him making the opening-day roster in San Francisco depending on how his progression tracks and how the Giants balance development with immediate roster needs.
Splash Considerations Ep. 6: Sit-Down Interview with Reliever Matt Gage
Q: What's the mental cue you have when you're trying to get the splitter right, and how do you actually execute it under pressure?
The key is to keep the pitch out in front with a front-side release, ensuring I stay on top and let the ball spin out while avoiding pushing it. This gives the splitter more dive toward the plate and makes it harder for hitters to commit to their swing, especially when I keep the other pitches honest and aligned to draw them off the slider.
