@MrActionJunkie1 Plays for Monday (dropped on the podcast)
Play 1: NRFI - San Diego Padres at Atlanta Braves - Game 1 (-122)
- Dylan Cease for the Padres, 1.38 ERA on the road over 32.2 innings. 0.78 WHIP on the season. He's got the good stuff again. Reynaldo Lopez gets the call for the Braves, 1.34 ERA, 1.09 WHIP. 0.77 ERA at home, 0 runs allowed in the first after 7 starts.
Play 2: NRFI - Chicago White Sox at Toronto Blue Jays (-132)
- Jose Berrios gets the call for the Blue Jays, check. Nothing more needs to be said on that side. Erick Fedde is on the bump for Chicago, 13 innings with 0 runs allowed in his last couple of starts. 2.60 ERA, 1.06 WHIP on the season. Road numbers are shaky, but his first inning numbers are strong. Let's hope for 6 outs without any damage on Victoria Day in Canada.
Play 3: NRFI - Seattle Mariners at New York Yankees (-130)
- Seattle ranks 28th in 1st inning runs scored so that should help Marcus Stroman. He gets the call for the Yankees, 3.33 ERA on the season, last out he tossed 6 scoreless innings at Minnesota. I'll hope for a repeat of that tonight. Logan Gilbert goes for Seattle, 3.07 ERA, 0.95 WHIP on the year. That's after allowing 11 runs over 10.2 innings in his last 2 starts against Minnesota & Kansas City. Bounce back time for Gilbert.
Play 4: NRFI - Baltimore Orioles at St. Louis Cardinals (-128)
- I love Baltimore, I love good pitching over good hitting any more. Sonny Gray goes for the Cardinals. Check the box. Dean Kremer goes for the O's, 3.72 ERA, 1.02 WHIP. Road ERA is good at a 1.88 this year, first inning numbers are great with 8 shutout innings allowing just 1 hit. Sign me up.
