Episode Details

Houston Astros vs. Philadelphia Phillies by Tony T.

Javier still misses bats, but his 1.55 WHIP, 9.9% walk rate, 25.0% ground-ball rate and 1.6 HR/9 have produced an unstable starting profile. His 4.88 FIP is 1.10 runs below the 5.98 ERA, showing that fielding-independent results have been better than the headline ERA without removing the contact and control concerns. Wheeler leads the matchup in ERA, WHIP, strikeout rate, walk rate, ground-ball rate and home-run prevention.
