New York Yankees Insights

  • Gerrit Cole has been given more leash than the typical pitcher this year, throwing 11.5 more adjusted pitches-per-game than the average starting pitcher.

  • Giancarlo Stanton has a ton of pop (99th percentile) if he makes contact, but that's usually a big "IF" (30% K%). Today, however, opposing pitcher Cal Quantrill is a pitch-to-contact type (19th percentile K%) — great news for Stanton.

  • Matt Carpenter has a high pull rate on his flyballs (38.7% — 98th percentile) and has the good fortune of hitting them towards MLB's 6th-shallowest RF fences today.

Cleveland Gaurdians Insights

  • Cal Quantrill has added a cut-fastball to his arsenal this year and has mixed it in 36.1% of the time.

  • The New York Yankees have just 1 same-handed RP in their bullpen, so Bo Naylor can likely count on never losing the platoon advantage against the 'pen all game.

  • Projected catcher Austin Hedges profiles as an elite pitch framer, per The Sharp Model projection system.
