+5 pts
Wyatt Langford 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 Logan Gilbert throws, compared with 21% against everyone else — 5 points worse. The reason is the splitter: Logan Gilbert throws it 14% of the time, and Wyatt Langford strikes out 44% of the time against it across 9 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it. Based on 79% of what this pitcher throws — he has not faced the rest often enough to measure.
