Don't know about this
seems like Niemman’s recent improvement doesn’t have anything to do with changing FB%, but instead with increasing FB velocity. The guy can’t throw 50% curves, his arm will fall off. I think he’s fine where he is right now.
Its a combo, The FBV sets everything up
but the increase in curves has allowed hmi to finish off hitters
