More evidence (in case people still were unsure) of a weak 5th pitch actually being treated as a detriment, rather than a bonus "show me" pitch.

All this is evidence of is that HBD's formula for OV views a weak pitch as a detriment.  It doesn't prove that it is a detriment.

It would stand to reason that any "weak" pitch is treated as a detriment.    At what point does "weak" apply?

Hell, it would stand to reason that any "weak" rating is a detriment for any player.

Why would a 32 y/o pitcher have a projected rating different from a current rating?

Low speed for a pitcher, for instance, or poor pitch-calling for a center fielder.

I was thinking more like 0 contact for a batter or 13 GB for a pitcher.   Unless, of course, we're assuming that it only applies to the P5 for a pitcher.   Which would be an odd assumption in my  opinion.

Because the dropped pitch still shows up in the projections.
