+8 pts
STRIKES OUT MORE
Published Thursday, October 15, 2026
Junior Caminero is a worse strikeout risk than usual tonight, and his season strikeout rate does not show it. He strikes out 26% of the time against the kind of pitches Gavin Williams throws, compared with 19% against everyone else — 8 points worse. The reason is the knuckle curve: Gavin Williams throws it 22% of the time, and Junior Caminero strikes out 40% of the time against it across 15 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it.
