NRFI - Cleveland Guardians at Kansas City Royals (-113)
- Cole Ragans gets the call for the Royals, 3.03 ERA on the year, 2.65 ERA in the opening frame. Cleveland ranks 6th in OPS vs. lefties so this won't be the easiest 3 outs in baseball. Tanner Bibee is on the bump for the Guardians, 3.50 ERA, 2.25 ERA in the first, Royals rank 14th in OPS vs. righties. Nothing easy about this one but I'll going to roll in the dice. NRFI it is.
NRFI - Pittsburgh Pirates at Atlanta Braves (-130)
- I'll circle and star this one today. Paul Skenes for Pittsburgh, 2.14 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, 0.98 ERA on the road. Looks like the rookie is the real deal. On the flipside, Maximus Max Fried is on the bump for the Braves, 3.00 ERA, 1.07 WHIP. Pittsburgh sticks are a career 17 for 77 against him. 221 BA. Family event for me on Saturday afternoon around, I have a funny feeling that I might have to run back to the car to get my wallet during the 1st inning so I can follow. Both teams are mid-pack in OPS, let's get 6 without a scratch.
NRFI - Minnesota Twins at Seattle Mariners (-130)
- Bryce Miller gets the call for Seattle, 3.90 ERA, 1.04 WHIP. Excellent home ERA with a 1.82, first inning ERA is shaky at best with a 5.63. Struggled last out allowing 6 runs over 4 innings at Miami of all teams. I'm hoping for a strong bounce back early. Pablo Lopez gets the ball for Minnesota, 8 shutout innings at Oakland last out, YTD numbers are not good with a 5.11 ERA, 5.06 ERA in the 1st. Seattle sticks are a lifetime 17 for 72 against Lopez, .236 BA. The Mariners rank 22nd in OPS vs. righties this year, I'm still a believer in the Lopez. Let's get this NRFI home.
