Platoon splits
Platoon splits (EB/PA allowed)
He handles righty bats better than lefty bats, by 0.041 EB/PA allowed.
50% probable range: +0.032 to +0.048
vs LHB: shrunk estimate 0.385 EB/PA, 50% probable range 0.370 to 0.400, based on 458 plate appearances. Raw (unshrunk) rate: 0.346 EB/PA. League median vs LHB: 0.451 EB/PA.
vs RHB: shrunk estimate 0.344 EB/PA, 50% probable range 0.329 to 0.360, based on 303 plate appearances. Raw (unshrunk) rate: 0.322 EB/PA. League median vs RHB: 0.435 EB/PA.
His split is about typical for a righty arm (median 0.042). He allows less than the league median against both sides, so even his weaker side is a strength.
How to read this chart
- Each dot is his estimate against that side, with its 50% probable range as the bar. These are bases allowed, so lower is better.
- The diamond is his raw rate, which small samples make noisy, so the simulator pulls the dot toward a more trustworthy value.
- The dashed tick is the league median, and the shaded strip is the middle half of pitchers with 100 or more batters faced.
- The two splits average back to his modeled overall EB/PA allowed, not the xEB/PA headline.
- Tap or hover a mark for its number. LHB and RHB are left- and right-handed batters. More on the About page
Contact allowed
Batters go up the middle off him most often, but they do the most damage to the pull side.
Pull side and opposite field depend on which side each batter hits from, so this pools every hitter he faced.
Batted balls allowed
Luck check
One out behind him came on a ball the simulator values at 1.5 bases or more.
11 hits off him had less than a 20% chance of being hits.
