About this episode
CJ Abrams, the Washington Nationals shortstop, is making waves in spring training with a dramatic reduction in chase rate and a significant increase in walk rate. The new coaching staff, led by Blake Butera and Matt Borgschulte, is aiming to improve his on-base percentage and utilize his speed to disrupt defenses. Early results show fewer bad swings and more discipline, thanks to the use of high-tech Trajekt pitching machines. While spring stats are small, fans and analysts are optimistic about Abrams potential to unlock lineup flexibility and boost the Nats offense.
