PROBLEMS WITH THE LONG BALL: Last season Odorizzi gave up 30 homers in IP...in his 28 starts he had only five outings where he did not give up at least one home run...his 1.88 HR/9.0 IP ranked fourth highest in the AL and sixth in MLB...of the 30 HR, 15 were solo shots, eight were two-run shot five three-run homers, and two grand-slams...had five multi-homer games, four of which were at home (Tropicana Field)...he was slightly better on the road than at home last season, giving up 11 homers on the road as compared to 19 at home. STILL NEED HELP: In Odorizzi's five starts in 2018, the Twins offense has supplied six total runs, good for a run support average of 2.08 run per game, which is tied for fifth lowest in baseball and tied for second lowest in the American League. A BRIGHT START: Odorizzi pitched in his first career Opening Day start and first career start for the Twins...he went 6.0 innings and allowed just two hits, while not allowing a run and striking out seven...only five other times in his career has he notched seven or more strikeouts while not allowing a run in 6.0-plus innings, the first since April 8, 2015 vs. Baltimore...he became the eighth different pitcher to start Opening Day for the Twins in the last 12 seasons RECAP: In his fourth full professional season, Odorizzi started 28 games and tossed innings... with a 10-8 record, this marked his third season of a.500 or better record His 7.97 K/9.0 IP ranked T-2nd best in his career (other, 2015 and best, 2014 with 9.32). On September 23, Odorizzi recorded nine strikeouts, a season high, while allowing just one run on three hits in 6.0 innings Odorizzi held right-handed batters to a.228 average and lefties to a.210 average against FLY AWAY: In 2017 Odorizzi ranked fourth among all major league pitchers in Fly Ball Percentage (min IP) with a rate of 47.3%...he trailed Ariel Miranda of Seattle (52.2%), Marco Estrada of Toronto (50.3%), and Ian Kennedy of Kansas City (47.7%)...since 2014 Odorizzi has ranked in the top-10 in fly ball percentage every season: 2014 (2nd, 48.7%), 2015 (10th, 40.6%), and 2016 (9th, 44.4%). HARD TO HIT IN 2017: Odorizzi started 12 games in 2017 where he allowed three-or-fewer hits, including a span of five games from September 5-29 where he allowed three-or-fewer hits in each game...this streak ties for the longest of any starter in baseball, last season...since the start of 2016, he has made 19 starts allowing three-or-fewer hits, most in the AL over that span. HELP! I NEED SOMEBODY: In 2017 Odorizzi gave up 14 unearned runs, ranking him third in the American League behind Rick Porcello (20) and Sonny Gray (15)...in fact, Odorizzi himself only committed two errors in all of HIGHS CAREER HIGHS CAREER NOTES 2018 MISC.
