Today's contest between the Dodgers and the Phillies pits THE BAT's 9th ranked SP (Zack Wheeler) against the 150th ranked SP (Tyler Anderson). The rundown on Wheeler tells us that he leans on his four-seamer fastball 37.1% of the time and keeps hitters off balance with a slider (29.0%). Anderson is a four-seam guy (35.4%) who brings a changeup as his most-trusted secondary offering. Advanced stats (namely, FIP) tell us that Wheeler deserves something like a 3.04 ERA, compared to his actual ERA of 4.10. On that front, Anderson's ERA sits at 2.78 and his FIP at 3.21.

Zack Wheeler's fastball velocity has decreased 1.6 mph this year (94.8 mph) below where it was last year (96.4 mph).
