EDGE Analysis

Tillman's velocity has been trending up in each of his six starts. According to FanGraphs, the 29-year-old's average fastball and changeup have differentiated by nearly nine mph over his MLB career. The gap between the two pitches is just 6.9 mph this season. Changing speeds is critical for a pitcher to have success at the highest level. Fantasy owners can make a fairly simple projection for Tillman's post-All Star performance based on the development of his heater in the coming weeks.
