MLBhitter vs arsenal

-8 pts

A.J. Ewing 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 17% of the time against the kind of pitches Cam Schlittler throws, compared with 25% against everyone else — 8 points better. The reason is the four-seam fb: Cam Schlittler throws it 44% of the time, and A.J. Ewing strikes out 16% of the time against it across 119 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it.
