Griffin Jax

Griffin Jax's tools (39) and production (40) are aligned. Primary finding: changeup grades as the best pitch (whiff 25.0%, csw 11.8%) but is only thrown 25.4% of the time. Also flagged: Stuff-to-Whiff Gap (Command). Most actionable fix: increase changeup usage to at least league-average for that pitch type.
