Daily Pitcher Hub: K-Predictor

The Daily Pitcher Hub K-Predictor takes Pitcher K-rates in a number of crucial splits and weights that against their opponent’s K% differential against the league average. This leads to a projected K/9 rate. Beyond that, we look at an actual strikeout projection by applying that to the pitcher’s innings pitched per game.
