Marsee Aims to Prove “Speed Never Slumps” Is True- Player Commentary- May 17, 2026
Jakob Marsee- OF- MIA- Hot- Marsee went 3-for-4 with a walk and 2 runs yesterday. This was his second consecutive 3-hit game. Marsee has increased his AVG from .176 to .204 in two games. There is some serios regression happening fast. Marsee’s BABIP has jumped in those two games from .236 to .267. Despite a slash line of .204/.320/.317 he has 13 steals and 25 runs. Marsee owns a 12.6% BB% so he can still get on base. His speed will keep him in the steals leaders and his AVG should keep increasing.
Logan Henderson– P- MIL- Hot- Henderson has made 9 MLB starts. He has given up no more than 2 runs in any of them. Henderson has thrown at least 5 IP in 7 of those starts. Yesterday he allowed 1 run in 5 IP allowing 6 hits while walking 1 and striking out 7. Henderson also has excellent control. His BB/9 this season is 1.50. As if that wasn’t enough, he misses bats and has a K/9 of 11.50. Henderson is consistent and doesn’t hurt you. He is a solid addition to a rotation.
Eduardo Rodriguez– P- ARI- Stats- Rodriguez allowed 3 runs on 9 hits while walking none and striking out 6 in 5.1 IP. He didn’t pitch as badly as the 3 runs and 9 hits indicated. While Rodriguez’s ERA for the game was 5.06, the FIP for the game was 0.85. It ended up closing the gap between his ERA (which went from 2.25 to 2.53) and his FIP (which went from 4.18 to 3.85.) Rodriguez had sharp control yesterday as 68 of his 91 pitches were strikes. He had a projected ERA of 4.78 so is overperforming. Rodriguez has a K/9 of 6.58, which is well below his career mark of 8.85. His BB/9 is 3.71, which is above his career mark of 3.17, but it dropped from 4.13 before yesterday’s start. Rodriguez has finished a season with an ERA below 4 once since 2021. Yesterday had some good underlying metrics, but his overperformance will likely regress towards his projections.
Yohendrick Pinango– OF- TOR- Rookie- Pinango hit his first MLB homer yesterday. He went 2-for-4 and raised his slash line to .364/.404/.477. In 2025 Pinango blistered AA pitching before a promotion to AAA. Overall he hit 15 homers in 533 PAs last year while slashing .258/.361/.430. Part of the reason Pinango’s average suffered with AAA Buffalo was a .278 BABIP. He has shown good plate discipline with a 13.1% BB% and 20.1% K% in the minors last season. Pinango has a 90.9 EV and 45.7% HardHIt% in his young MLB career. This supports his reputation as a hitter with power potential. Pinango has been starting against RH pitching and producing. Even with a .405 BABIP his xBA was still at .336 heading into yesterday.
Nick Martinez– P- TB- Hot- Martinez was part of a pitchers’ duel in Florida that lasted for 9 innings until a total of 11 runs were scored in the 10th. Martinez was long gone, but still made a quality start, tossing 6 shutout IP. He allowed 5 hits, walked 1, and struck out 4. Martinez owns a 1.51 ERA with a 3.25 FIP. He doesn’t miss many bats, with a SwStr% of 8.1 % but he gets a lot of chase with a 32.3% chase rate. This results in weak contact. Martinez has a HardHit% of 30.0%, which puts him in the 90th percentile. This is pretty much what Martinez does. In 2025 he had a 4.45 ERA, but that is looking like an outlier.
