Does anyone remember how bad Tommy Kahnle was last season? I sure do. Kahnle had a 6.56 ERA in 2018 for the New York Yankees over 24 appearances. After an early IL stint, Kahnle spent most of his year at AAA. His velocity was down, sitting in the low 90s rather than the mid to upper 90s.
But in 2019, Kahnle has been absolutely incredible. His ERA is at 1.13 over 18 appearances and hasn’t given up an earned run in a month.

Once Tommy lost his velocity in 2018, he never really got it back.
