Detroit Tigers boost their bullpen with Andrew Chafin.
MCBTB
Lefties hit .170 against him in 104 plate appearances and righties hit .196 in 162 plate appearances with 43 strikeouts. Power wise, lefties hit just one home run off him. His slider generated an impressive 54% Whiff rate and batters hit just .092.
Chafin benefited from some extreme luck last year, with a .232 batting average on balls in play and an 86.1% left-on-base percentage (league average for relievers was .288 and 71.5%), so his 1.83 ERA is unsustainable. That said, his 2.98 FIP, 1.4 fWAR, and 2.9 bWAR would have easily led a 2021 Detroit Tigers bullpen that ranked in the bottom third of baseball. And there?s one more benefit to this signing.
