MLBhitter vs arsenal

-11 pts

Griffin Conine 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 19% of the time against the kind of pitches Jake Irvin throws, compared with 30% against everyone else — 11 points better. The reason is the sinker: Jake Irvin throws it 21% of the time, and Griffin Conine strikes out 4% of the time against it across 25 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it.
