Will Warren has tapped into his best self this season, and Gavin Williams looks like the Guardians' ace. New York hasn't seen its offense fully evaporate in the wake of Aaron Judge's injury, but it's also only scored more than four runs in one of its last five games. Cleveland can occasionally run into a crooked number, but it's still scored in the bottom half of MLB. If you can get Under 7.5 for something around +130, that's preferable, but I like the safety net at 8.0.

The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Paul Goldschmidt in the 81st percentile when it comes to his batting average skill.. Paul Goldschmidt is projected to bat 3rd on the lineup card in this game.. The #2 venue in the majors for boosting BABIP to RHB, via the leading projection system (THE BAT), is Progressive Field.. Built 673 feet above sea level, Progressive Field has the 7th-highest altitude in the majors, which often leads to higher offensive output.. The weather report forecasts temperatures in this game to reach the 2nd-highest level of the day at 85°, which is highly linked to an increase in offense (and a reduction in strikeouts).

The risk here, of course, is that Phillies left-hander Cristopher Sanchez spins a complete-game shutout. That's certainly in play. But Blue Jays lefty Patrick Corbin is playing with fire. His 5.27 expected ERA is more than a full run higher than his 3.98 actual ERA, and he simply misses zero bats. I still expect Philly to do most of the heavy lifting, but the Jays offense can chip away at an ace of this magnitude as one of only two teams with a strikeout rate below 20%.

Petco Park's altitude is near sea-level, one of the lowest among all parks, which generally leads to worse offense..

Trusting the Giants offense is a precarious decision, but Miles Mikolas is the sort of pitcher you fade every chance you get. The veteran right-hander barely qualifies as a warm body for the Nationals, as evidenced by his fourth-percentile whiff rate, seventh-percentile strikeout rate, and ninth-percentile barrel rate. He's not fooling anyone, as his 6.39 ERA shows. On the flip side, no team has scored more runs than the Nationals, and James Wood and CJ Abrams may be champing at the bit to step in against Logan Webb, a sometimes great starter who has struggled mightily in 2026. We can clear this total even if one of these starters has a halfway decent outing.

The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects CJ Abrams in the 84th percentile when it comes to his overall offensive talent.. CJ Abrams is penciled in 4th in the batting order in this matchup.. The wind projects to be blowing out to RF at 15.3-mph in this game, the 2nd-most-favorable of the day for bats.. Hitting from the opposite that Logan Webb throws from, CJ Abrams will have an advantage today.. CJ Abrams pulls a high percentage of his flyballs (35.3% — 84th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he'll be hitting them towards the league's 2nd-shallowest RF fences today.

As it relates to his BABIP talent, Christian Yelich is projected as the 15th-best hitter in the game by the leading projection system (THE BAT X)..

Las Vegas Ballpark has the 3rd-lowest average fence height among all major league parks.. A correlation exists between high heat and more offense (and fewer Ks), and this game is predicted to have the highest temperatures of all games on the slate today at 91°.

Ranger Suarez has started four games against teams ranking Top-10 in OPS vs. left-handed pitching, allowing 13 runs and posting a 6.13 ERA during those games. The New York Yankees lead the majors in OPS against lefties so they’re a prime candidate to cause Suarez problems. Playable to -145.
