Baltimore starter Trey Gibson is overpriced with a poor 6.34 SIERA and a handful of strikeouts. Randy Vasquez has been much more reliable with a slightly better 5.70 SIERA. Take the better pitching numbers with the Padres on the road.

The leading projection system (THE BAT) projects Guaranteed Rate Field as the 9th-best ballpark in baseball for run-scoring.. In MLB, Guaranteed Rate Field has the 10th-lowest average fence height.. Guaranteed Rate Field has the smallest outfield among all major league stadiums — generally good for HRs.. A correlation exists between high heat and more offense (and fewer strikeouts), and this game is projected to have the 5th-hottest weather of all games on the slate at 88°.

The market is making a mistake by pricing the Phillies as big underdogs. Aaron Nola is a top-tier pitcher compared to Shane Drohan. Philadelphia's bullpen supports him with a strong 3.22 SIERA to keep Milwaukee quiet.

EV Model Rating
Star rating: 3 out of 5
The leading projection system (THE BAT) forecasts Griffin Jax in the 90th percentile when assessing his strikeout skill.. The leading projection system (THE BAT) ranks Angel Stadium as the 4th-best field in baseball for strikeouts.. This contest is expected to have the 3rd-most suitable conditions for pitching among all the games scheduled today.. Griffin Jax's 2520-rpm fastball spin rate this year is in the 93rd percentile out of all starting pitchers.. Considering the 1.56 gap between Griffin Jax's 8.31 K/9 and his 9.87 estimated true talent K/9 (via the leading projection system, THE BAT), it's safe to say he's been one of the unluckiest pitchers in the majors this year in terms of strikeouts and ought to positively regress going forward.

Atlanta and Chicago send two of the best lineups in baseball to the dish, and they respectively rank eighth and third in wOBA against lefties for the campaign. The two clubs have also trended to the Over, and I'm particularly expecting White Sox southpaw Anthony Kay to struggle considering he's saddled with the fifth-highest xERA in baseball among the 100 pitchers with at least 60 innings this year.

I'm fading Chicago White Sox lefty Anthony Kay on Thursday. He's sporting the fifth-highest xERA among the 100 pitchers with at least 60 innings, after all. Plus, the Atlanta Braves enter ranked eighth in wOBA against southpaws for the season and sixth in overall xwOBA across the past 14 days.

The Yankees rank Top-3 in OPS, ISO, OBP, xWOBA, and hard hit rate when facing left-handed pitching. The Red Sox have hit righties very well over the past four weeks, sitting ninth in wOBA, ninth in ISO, and fourth in batting average. Play the Over to -120.

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.
