Nice data!
The thing I notice about both Bauer and Cole is sudden steep rises. Bauer recently, which corelates with what we already know about him and his changing attitude towards the sticky stuff. Cole's sudden steep rise looks like it coincides with his trade to the Astros, which is an interesting data point considering Bauer's semi-cryptic accusation a few years back that the Astros love their sticky stuff.
deGrom's increased spin rate has been steady and only within the range that is accepted as potentially natural improvement (not saying it is or isn't).
Martinez's fastball looks to have worsened, which is kinda funny, given how many fans find him so frustrating to watch (great one start, mud the next). And Gibson's stayed fairly steady, though his top outliers are recent and impressive.
