STRIKES OUT LESS
Published Friday, September 18, 2026
Juan Brito 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 9% of the time against the kind of pitches Clay Holmes throws, compared with 26% against everyone else — 17 points better. The reason is the sinker: Clay Holmes throws it 49% of the time, and Juan Brito strikes out 0% 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. Based on 74% of what this pitcher throws — he has not faced the rest often enough to measure.
