G. Cole ⬇️ 1.5 Walks (-120 @ MGM) THE BAT X 📽️: 1.06 Walks Cole has struggled more with his command/control this season than in the past: 2024 BB%: 7.4% 2023: 5.8% 2022: 6.3% 2021: 5.6% 2020: 5.9% However, we've seen Cole produce much similar to his old self in the month of September, with a 5.8% walk-rate, which is much more in line with his career norms. He's only cleared this once in his L6 starts and the under still has better than a 50% hit-rate this season. Cole walks fewer righties (6.2%) than lefties (8.3%) this season. KCR will have 4 lefties in the lineup today. Let's look at their walk-rates vs RHP: M. Massey: 4.8% 🟢 V. Pasquantino: 8.6% 🟡 M. Melendez: 9.0% 🟡 K. Isbel: 6.7% 🟢 So no run-away matchups here. Against this current roster, Cole has a 2.7% walk-rate in his career. Going to lean on the Yankees ace to put in a good start to kick off NYY's playoff run.
