Ragans, J. Lowe, G. Williams, Wallner, S. Domínguez
Sep 5 2024
Ragans shows us that 2023 wasn't a fluke... Cole Ragans (LHP, KC) rocks a 3.46 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, 29% K%, and 8% BB% in 161 innings. Ragans smashed in the second half of 2023 with a 2.64 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, 31.1% K%, and 9.4% BB% in 71.2 innings. However, we wondered if Ragans could maintain the skills and success into 2024. Let's examine Ragans and his legitimacy.
| Season | IP | ERA/xERA | WHIP | H%/S% | GB%/FB% | Ball% | BB% | K% | SwK% | HR/F | BPX |
| 2022 | 40 | 4.95/5.10 | 1.48 | 33%/70% | 36%/39% | 38.2% | 9% | 16% | 11.4% | 12% | 31 |
| 2023 | 102.1 | 3.62/2.98 | 1.18 | 30%/70% | 43%/36% | 36.2% | 11% | 29% | 12.5% | 8% | 119 |
| 2024 | 161.1 | 3.46/3.51 | 1.17 | 32%/72% | 40%/40% | 36.5% | 9% | 30% | 15.5% | 9% | 154 |
Ragans is legit:
- Ragans' xERA aligns with his actual, but it's still a quality ERA. His 36.5% ball rate in 2023 remained the same in 2024 (36.7%). It's hard to compare...
