How is Cristian Javier performing?
Cristian Javier is a strikeout-heavy pitcher through 3 starts. His 32.05% strikeout rate and 26.74% whiff rate confirm a swing-and-miss approach, but he's averaging just 4.3 innings per start, which limits strikeout volume despite the high rate. The profile shows the stuff is there to miss bats, but durability or role constraints are keeping him from accumulating length.
