MLBhitter vs arsenal
+8 pts
STRIKES OUT MORE
Published Saturday, September 19, 2026
Pedro Ramírez 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 Nick Lodolo throws, compared with 18% against everyone else — 8 points worse. The reason is the curveball: Nick Lodolo throws it 25% of the time, and Pedro Ramírez strikes out 54% of the time against it across 13 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it.
