The Staff
Paxton – back to back 12 strikeout games, and gets a cupcake matchup against San Francisco. He’s been almost unhittable and should mow down this Giants lineup tonight.
(Risk factor 4)
Fried – He’s been great this year, allowing just 4 runs in 4 games. He has 4 quality starts in each of starts this year and wins in 3 out of 4.
(Risk factor 5)
Mikolas – His k rate is down a bit from last year, but Mikolas is coming off a solid game where he went 8 innings and struck out 4. He’s still giving up runs, but gets a bit of an easier matchup tonight against a Cincy.
(Risk factor 5)
The Bats
Minnesota –Â They hammered Cobb for 9 runs in his last start, and I highly doubt that changes tonight. Load me up
(1-7)
Cards – Desclafani was good in his last start, but that was against a weak San Diego lineup and in Petco. St. Louis has already seen him once, and now get him at home.
(1-6)
Seattle – This team is full of power, and Miller is due for his 8 run blowup game.
(Righties And Vogy)
Toronto – Vlad Jr time. Fiers is a fastball dependent arm, and that’s one pitch this lineup can hit.
