Matt Koch is a mystery -hard thrower, no walks, few Ks....hard to project him for the low K's. Seems that to normalize his stats, he needs to significantly lower hits per inning, allow more walks and get more Ks by trying to induce more hitters to swing at bad balls - but that is just speculation, having not seen him. Seeing a guy, as we did with Degrom, makes a huge difference in evaluating him.
Puello, Plawecki and Dilson are looking promising. Assuming Puello now stays on his hot hitting game, it is puzzling why he has such slow starts - did last year too, then went on fire. Avoiding hitting potholes like he had in April are important when teams consider promotability.
