-7 pts
STRIKES OUT LESS
Published Tuesday, September 29, 2026
Jarren Duran 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 21% of the time against the kind of pitches Cam Schlittler throws, compared with 28% against everyone else — 7 points better. The reason is the cutter: Cam Schlittler throws it 26% of the time, and Jarren Duran strikes out 12% of the time against it across 57 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it.
