Statistics Prove the Fall of KRod

ESPNNewYork.com has put together a statistical analysis of the fall of KRod (hence making him Pray Rod). Hitters are batting an unbelievable .340 on balls in play, meaning that basically anytime a ball is hit that's in fair territory KRod is getting tagged.

The article goes on to show his velocity is down 4-5 mph and his control is off as well. The analysis is saddening, but it's a truth the Mets have to address. See the chart below for more.
