Breaking down Josh Bell's strong start to 2022
In his second season in D.C., Josh Bell has gotten off to a strong start, and it’s tough not to think back to his 2019 All-Star season, when he hit .302 in the first half.

Max Muncy's strange start is ... Bondsian?
Some strange, lopsided batting lines appear in the early going every season. This season is no exception, but even in that context, Max Muncy's is a doozy.

His name sounds nasty. His pitches ARE nasty
When you picture a prototypical Major League pitcher, someone like Nestor Cortes is the last person you'd think of. But he's become baseball's most unlikely ace.
The Yankees' 5-foot-11 left-hander has gone from a journeyman who the Yankees let go to another team twice to the American League ERA leader....

This is MLB's most unhittable pitch
Ask someone to name the most unhittable pitch in baseball and you're likely to get a variety of answers. Of course, unhittable is usually figurative. Even the nastiest offerings yield hits from time to time.
But so far this season, one pitcher has a pitch that is staking a literal...
