Ragans, J. Lowe, G. Williams, Wallner, S. Domínguez

Ragans shows us that 2023 wasn't a fluke... Cole Ragans (LHP, KC) rocks a 3.46 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, 29% K%, and 8% BB% in 161 innings. Ragans smashed in the second half of 2023 with a 2.64 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, 31.1% K%, and 9.4% BB% in 71.2 innings. However, we wondered if Ragans could maintain the skills and success into 2024. Let's examine Ragans and his legitimacy.

Season	IP	ERA/xERA	WHIP	H%/S%	GB%/FB%	Ball%	BB%	K%	SwK%	HR/F	BPX
2022	40	4.95/5.10	1.48	33%/70%	36%/39%	38.2%	9%	16%	11.4%	12%	31
2023	102.1	3.62/2.98	1.18	30%/70%	43%/36%	36.2%	11%	29%	12.5%	8%	119
2024	161.1	3.46/3.51	1.17	32%/72%	40%/40%	36.5%	9%	30%	15.5%	9%	154

Ragans is legit:

• Ragans' xERA aligns with his actual, but it's still a quality ERA. His 36.5% ball rate in 2023 remained the same in 2024 (36.7%). It's hard to compare...
