Negatives with the Los Angeles Dodgers Game Today

The #10 ballpark in MLB for suppressing strikeouts, via the leading projection system (THE BAT), is Dodger Stadium.
Shohei Ohtani has had positive variance on his side thus far when it comes to his strikeouts this year, notching a 12.25 K/9 despite the leading projection system (THE BAT) estimating his true talent level to be 11.79 — a 0.46 K/9 gap.
Given the 0.26 difference between Cristopher Sanchez’s 9.48 K/9 and his 9.22 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 the league this year when it comes to strikeouts and ought to see negative regression in the future.
