Despite finding the strike zone at a reliable 55.6% rate, Schmidt was still a little wild with his four-seamer command, posting a 25% walk rate to only an 8.3% strike rate. Schmidt sits at about 95 mph in terms of velocity and, despite a proclivity for free passes, only allowed a .143 BAA against his heater.

Schmidt might be better off downplaying his sinker and ramping up his four-seamer usage during his second season with the Yankees, based on how the two pitches performed in 2020. Opposing batters teed off on the sinker for a .429/.500/.714 slash line, and although an unsustainably high .500 BABIP may signal better days ahead, a 2.4% swinging-strike rate doesn't offer much optimism for strikeout upside.
