Positives for the Washington Nationals Game Today

The leading projection system (THE BAT) forecasts Luis Gil in the 81st percentile when it comes to his strikeout ability.

Built just 11 feet above sea level, Yankee Stadium has one of the lowest altitudes in the majors, which generally leads to worse offense.

Low humidity has a small yet noteworthy correlation with less offense (and more whiffs), and the weather report projects the driest conditions of all games today at 40%.

Out of all starting pitchers, Luis Gil’s fastball spin rate of 2453 rpm is in the 86th percentile this year.

Luis Gil has put up a 25.1% Strikeout% since the start of last season, ranking in the 81st percentile.

When estimating his strikeout talent, the leading projection system (THE BAT) places MacKenzie Gore in the 94th percentile among all starting pitchers in the majors.

Throwing 96.6 adjusted pitches per GS this year on average, MacKenzie Gore checks in at the 97th percentile.

In his previous game started, MacKenzie Gore turned in a great performance and put up 13 strikeouts.

Negatives with the New York Yankees Game Today

Luis Gil’s 95.4-mph velocity on his fastball this season is a substantial 1.3-mph decline from last season’s 96.7-mph mark.

With a 0.48 difference between Luis Gil’s 9.92 K/9 and his 9.44 estimated true talent K/9 (via the leading projection system, THE BAT), it’s safe to say he’s been one of the luckiest pitchers in MLB since the start of last season when it comes to strikeouts and should perform worse in the future.

MacKenzie Gore’s 94.7-mph velocity on his fastball this season is a sizeable 1.2-mph fall off from last year’s 95.9-mph mark.

Given the 0.23 difference between MacKenzie Gore’s 10.75 K/9 and his 10.52 estimated true talent K/9 (via the leading projection system, THE BAT), it’s safe to say he’s been one of the luckiest pitchers in MLB this year when it comes to strikeouts and figures to negatively regress going forward.
