13 game slate-
Weather looks good
Listed below are my favorite pitchers for tonight with 4 teams and some value bats.
PITCHERS
Madison Bumgarner
Last time Bum played the Rockies in SF he struck out 11 batters over 6 innings. The Rockies have not done as well vs LHPs on the road.
Jack Flaherty
Has been one of the best pitchers 2nd half of the year. Price is down and all go tonight.
VALUE ARM
Jeff Hoffman
Cheap arm with a 34% K rate vs LHHs on the road and under 1 HR/9. K rate is up to 28% in the road. The Giants usually roll out 5 lefties. Hoffman does give up some power to RHHs outside of Coors, but this park should hold the ball a bit. I can see Hoffman going 5 innings with 6 Ks and 2 ERs.
TEAM/S
STL Cardinals
Cardinals face Leake the master of dongs tonight in Arizona. Cardinals hit a few bombs last night and should go off again tonight.
**Edman, Goldschmidt, Ozuna, Molina,DeJong
Houston Astros
Astros face some guy named Dunn and Tommy Milone….Yeah Buddy. The should blast him tonight in Seattle.
**Springer, Altuve, Bregman, Correa, Guriell
Value at bottom-Maldonado
Oakland As
As face Peters in Anaheim(park good for bombs and As can go yard with the best of them.
*Semien, Chapman, Olsen(Peters allows power to both sides), Canha
*Value- Pinder(in play Run(s) tonight, K. Davis
Boston Red Sox
Sox go to Texas with some warm weather and face 2 Turribull pitchers.
*JBJ my favorite, Moreland, Betts, Vasquez
VALUE BATS
Adam Duvall & Austin Riley- batting 5/6 vs a lefty.
Hunter Renfroe- price drop and Rich Hill stinks.
Ian Happ/Jason Heyward
Roberto Perez
Ryan O’Hearn
Chris Taylor
