NRFI - New York Yankees at San Francisco Giants (-115)

  • Yankees hit Logan Webb hard on Saturday, now they get to face the struggling Blake Snell. The defending Cy Young winner is 0-3 with a 10.42 ERA and 2.00 WHIP. He's given up 3 or more runs in all 5 starts and has yet to get out of the 5th. Still, he's the defending Cy Young winner and flipped a switch last year after a slow start. The Yankees rank 16th in OPS vs. lefties compared to #1 vs. righties so that gives me hope. Nestor Cortes goes for the Yankees, 3.30 ERA, 1.06 WHIP on the season. 2.48 ERA in May with 3 straight starts giving up 2 or fewer runs. Don't look at his road or first inning splits, they don't look good. Cortes is starting to find that 2021 and 2022 magic, I'll roll the dice on the NRFI. 

NRFI: LA Angels at Seattle Mariners (-125)

  • Griffin Canning for the Angels, Luis Castillo for the Mariners. Angels are hitting a career .203 vs. Castillo, Mariners are hitting a career .238 against Canning. Canning has a 5.08 ERA on the season, 2.60 ERA in May. Castillo was a 3.28 ERA on the season. Both teams have been good NRFI teams most of the year, hopefully that trend continues today.
