-10 pts
Roman Anthony 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 15% of the time against the kind of pitches Bryan Woo throws, compared with 25% against everyone else — 10 points better. The reason is the four-seam fb: Bryan Woo throws it 48% of the time, and Roman Anthony strikes out 12% of the time against it across 33 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it.
