NRFI - Texas Rangers at Houston Astros (-113)

  • Ronel Blanco for the Astros today, 2.53 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, 2.66 ERA over his last 7 starts. He's earned my respect all season with 14 of 17 starts resulting in 2 or fewer runs allowed. Max Scherzer will toe the rubber for the Rangers, 4 starts this year with a 3.09 ERA, 0.94 WHIP. He's yet to allow a run in the first, let's see if he can keep that trend going for another day. 

NRFI - Cleveland Guardians at Tampa Bay Rays (-115)

  • Ryan Pepiot for the Rays, 4.20 ERA, 1.13 WHIP on the season. Opponents are hitting just .207 against him, Guardians are hitting .239 vs. righties this season. Pepiot was strong last out going 5.2 innings against the Yankees allowing just 1 run. Ben Lively goes for the Guardians, 3.59 ERA, 1.19 WHIP. 15 starts, 1 run allowed in the first. I like that stat. Last start was forgettable at Detroit allowing 6 runs over 5.1 innings. Rays rank 27th in OPS vs. righties. NRFI it is. 

NRFI - Chicago Cubs at St. Louis Cardinals (-115)

  • Miles Mikolas gets the call for the Cardinals, 4.88 ERA on the season, last 7 have been much better with a 3.86 ERA. Faced the Cubs a few weeks ago, 6.1 innings allowing 1 run. Jameson Taillon goes for the Cubbies, 2.99 ERA, 1.16 WHIP. Excellent first inning numbers with a 2.40 ERA. Faced the Cardinals a couple weeks back, 6 innings allowing 2 runs. Both teams are Top 7 in NRFI % this year, let's get 6.
