MLB PicksVictor Mesa Jr. is easily my favorite look to go YA-YA in this matchup. Not only is he one of the hottest hitters in this spot, but he is also making a high volume of quality contact.
In his last 30 at-bats against a right-handed pitcher, Mesa Jr. owns a .796 SLG and .461 ISO while generating a 56% hard-hit rate and a near-16% barrel rate.
The Phillies may have Zack Wheeler on the mound, but I’m not interested in forcing a bet on Philadelphia at this price. The offense has been lifeless, posting an 87 wRC+, 4.4% barrel rate and .113 ISO over its last six games. Meanwhile, Nick Martinez has been just as impressive for Tampa Bay, posting a 2.08 ERA and 0.75 WHIP while allowing just a 4% barrel rate over his last three starts. The Rays scored 12 runs in their last game, but I’m not worried about regression. This offense has consistently kept its foot on the gas.
Runs could be at a premium when the Tampa Bay Rays take on the Philadelphia Phillies this afternoon. After the Rays scored 12 runs against the Phillies last night, regression could be in store in the series finale. Philadelphia’s recent struggles at the plate only add to the case for a lower-scoring matchup. Nick Martinez and Zack Wheeler will take the mound, and both right-handers have pitched well over their last three starts. Martinez and Wheeler each own an ERA slightly above 2.00 during that stretch while sporting sub-1.00 WHIPs, setting the stage for a potential pitching duel.
