2024 CPBL Week 4 Review: Lotte Struggles and Rakuten Shines – League Battle Summary

Week 4: 2024/04/16~2024/04/21

Summary

Watch the game every week and talk about the big and small things of the six teams in front of Kaohsiung MRT Station O3, we will talk about vocational high schools.

Lotte, it’s hard to put into words.

A team whose OPS+ and ERA+ are both at the bottom of the league. You know what word to use to explain it better than it is difficult to explain in one word.

Let’s put Lotte aside for a moment It would take a long time to review them. In the fourth week, every hitter in the league fell flat. .

Therefore, the pitching category is divided into two groups: “those who hit the same level” and “those who did not hit the same level”. relatively better.

At the end of the fourth week, the six teams have clearly separated into Group AB As for Group A, the combined shooting was still strong, with a record of 4 wins and 1 loss. The line went into the next period – check down.

As for Group B, Fubon is currently leading. , and was tied to the unwritable Lotte album.

Overall, the league battle situation in the fourth week looks like this:

When I see this type of Group AB, the first thing I think of is that in the 1990s, some teams would try their best to grab the top spot in Group B. The reason is that “only when they hit the top spot of Group B. B can they be accountable to the fans.” I think in 2024, no team should be doing this kind of thing it’s quite another to eliminate the few remaining top players to grab a fake name.

Although there are already signs of a downward revision from the unified perspective, so far they are only “signs”. shall we leave

Since Rakuten’s performance is so impressive, I’ll spend a little more time talking about Rakuten below, but of course I’ll also briefly talk about the league as a whole, starting with the load -effect as usual.

It can be said that these two have almost the problem.

Chapter Hitter

When professional football drafts a lineup, it’s carrot and stick that they fear the most.

It’s better to have overflow strength than to think, “I have a draft pick, a backup, a backup, and a rookie to use.” My position is extremely stable put together seven first basemen.

Judging from the results, it was a big mistake for Lotte to let Chen Junxiu run away. In fact, it can be said that the team did not expect the effect of being homeless at home to be so big, but at this time, of. Of course, having one more baseman who can hit, let him go to another team, whether he plays or not, his influence on your side will be gone after all .

Let’s get back to business, let’s talk about each team’s attack first.

I still want to say Lotte, they are so wonderful. Through the fourth week, the batting average was a very poor .199/.262/.295 in the league.

If the performance in the third week is called “Violent Ape Fighting (laughs)”, then the fourth week can almost be renamed to “Then Violent Ape Fighting” or “Violent Ape Fighting First”.

It’s true that being homeless at home has to have an impact, but being homeless to the point where the entire team doesn’t have an offensive strategy is another matter. Lotte’s miracle of finding a batting average at the edge of the strike zone will disappear in 2024. They also like to touch the ball at the edge of the strike zone, and then die when they touch it.

Let’s talk about it here: The fly ball revolution is not about hitting meaningless fly balls, but about finding ways to hit the ball correctly. I feel, in this era of fly ball revolution, why should we go back to the time of looking for batting average But, if the batting is really considered as a major league “barrel”, it is defined as a batted ball with an initial velocity greater than 98mph and a decent angle of elevation As for the ball, that’s not a bad thing.
