The projection as it was published, not as we would write it today.

Every number below was frozen before the first pitch and has not been touched since. Nothing is recomputed with today’s model, so a night that went badly still reads badly. Pick any night and check us.

100%

How many landed inside their 80% range. One night is a small sample.

2 of 2

Pitcher	Projected	80% range	Actual	Miss	Big night
Freddy PeraltaHe pitches to contact, striking out only 20% of the hitters he sees, facing a lineup that strikes out about as often as anyone (22%), but playoff starters go shorter, so we plan on about 71 pitches and his night ends early.	4	2–7	4	0.0	4% → no
Robert GasserStrikeouts aren't really his game; just 19% of hitters go down swinging, facing a pesky lineup that puts everything in play (17% strikeout rate), but playoff starters go shorter, so we plan on about 72 pitches and his night ends early.	3	1–5	3	0.0	1% → no

Miss is projected minus actual: positive means we projected more strikeouts than he threw. An actual shown in red landed outside its 80% range. Openers and short assignments are voided and never counted.
