Fantasy Impact:

According to Cassavell, Paddack's curveball was tighter than usual in his spring debut Wednesday. The pitch's velocity also averaged in the upper-70's after averaging 76.1 mph in 2019. An improvement to the curveball will be crucial for Paddack's success this season, as he allowed opposing hitters to bat .267 against it last year, compared to .198 against the other pitches in his arsenal.
