-12 pts

STRIKES OUT LESS

Published Tuesday, September 29, 2026

Jahmai Jones is a safer bet to put the ball in play tonight than he usually is, and his season strikeout rate does not show it. He strikes out 20% of the time against the kind of pitches Cam Schlittler throws, compared with 32% against everyone else — 12 points better. The reason is the cutter: Cam Schlittler throws it 26% of the time, and Jahmai Jones strikes out 17% of the time against it across 12 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it.
