Jason or Chris, sorry I didn't get this question in:

Paxton proved his talent in 2009, but his peripheral numbers were not special. Why didn't the numbers reflect his talent level?

Couple things to keep in mind about collegiate stats.

1. Metal bats make things difficult
2. Plenty of times that pitchers are left in past their game expiration time.
3. Metal bats

The most important stat I see for Paxton was 115 strikeouts. If you can miss bats in college with three above-average pitches, you're going to be fine.

Speaking of those metal bats, high school rules will enforce a new metal bat in 2012 that is hitting equivilant to wood bat - safer and bring game back to what it should be. Does anyone know if NCAA is going to be the same, same timing, etc? Thanks in advance. Enjoyed reading through the chat from last night. Thanks!
