MLBhitter vs arsenal
-6 pts
STRIKES OUT LESS
Published Saturday, October 3, 2026
Bo Naylor 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 18% of the time against the kind of pitches Robbie Ray throws, compared with 24% against everyone else — 6 points better. The reason is the sinker: Robbie Ray throws it 15% of the time, and Bo Naylor strikes out 8% of the time against it across 13 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it.
