@MrActionJunkie1 Plays for Thursday (dropped on the podcast)

NRFI - Kansas City Royals at Cleveland Guardians (-118)

  • This NRFI got even better in my eyes after the rainout on Wednesday. Brady Singer is still on the bump for Royals with his 2.63 ERA and 0.82 1st inning ERA. Tanner Bibee gets the call for Cleveland, 3.74 ERA on the season, excellent 1st inning numbers allowing only 2 runs in 12 starts. Let's get 6 without a mark at Progressive Field. 

NRFI - Colorado Rockies at St. Louis Cardinals (-136)

  • Sonny Gray looks to bounce back for the Cardinals after struggling in Philadelphia last out, Gray is 4-1 at home, 0.93 ERA with a 0.79 WHIP. Cal Quantrill had his good early season derail last out giving up 4 over 4.1 innings at the LA Dodgers. Quantrill had a 1.71 ERA in May. Cardinal hitters are 5 for 28 lifetime against Quantrill. I was leaning Cardinals RL in the F5, decided on the NRFI in the end. 

NRFI - Seattle Mariners at Oakland Athletics (-118)

  • Bryan Woo for Seattle, JP Sears for Oakland. Woo is 2-0 over 5 starts with a 1.30 ERA, he has yet to allow a hit or a run in the opening frame this year. As most of you know by now, I'm a bigger JP Sears fan than most. 3.38 ERA at home, 3.41 ERA in May, 3.00 ERA in the 1st. Mariner hitters are a career 11 for 54 off Sears, .204 BA. Mariners rank 23rd vs. Lefties, Athletics rank 21st against righties. Teams rank 26th & 28th in 1st inning runs. Let's do it.
