Gerrit Cole's velocity was down for the New York Yankees against the New York Mets, a potentially concerning sign.
Throwing four innings, the 2023 Cy Young Award winner allowed six earned runs, giving up four home runs along the way. Allowing four walks and not striking out anyone, this was as bad of a start as imaginable for the right-hander.
"This is this guy's spring training. He's still working back. That's our ace, that's our guy. I want him out there every five days." "Disappointing. Didn't really give us a good chance to win tonight. Didn't really execute enough good pitches, just kind of dug us a hole."that he intentionally dialed back his velocity as his start progressed because he was lacking command, comparing it to driving a car and using less clutch.
Similar to how Judge struggled to start the season, and New York fans overreacted, this often happens when players aren't on the mound for an extended period of time.
