+9 pts
Travis d'Arnaud is a worse strikeout risk than usual tonight, and his season strikeout rate does not show it. He strikes out 39% of the time against the kind of pitches Kade Anderson throws, compared with 30% against everyone else — 9 points worse. The reason is the four-seam fb: Kade Anderson throws it 40% of the time, and Travis d'Arnaud strikes out 42% of the time against it across 24 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it. Based on 58% of what this pitcher throws — he has not faced the rest often enough to measure.
