MLBhitter vs arsenal

+10 pts

Travis Bazzana is a worse strikeout risk than usual tonight, and his season strikeout rate does not show it. He strikes out 31% of the time against the kind of pitches Spencer Arrighetti throws, compared with 21% against everyone else — 10 points worse. The reason is the curveball: Spencer Arrighetti throws it 34% of the time, and Travis Bazzana strikes out 50% 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.
