@MrActionJunkie1 Plays for Thursday (dropped on the podcast)

NRFI - Toronto Blue Jays at New York Yankees (+100)

  • I'm thinking if I put the Yankees back on my card, things will return to normal. I need to reverse my NRFI curse, the last 10 days have been miserable. Marcus Stroman for the Yankees, 3.64 ERA, not good over the last 7 with a 5.56 ERA, home numbers aren't the best with a 4.47 ERA, same is true with his 4.71 ERA in the first inning. Blue Jays are the 7th best NRFI team. The Blue Jays are a career .245 off Stroman without much success at the top of the lineup. Kevin Gausman for the Blue Jays, 4.44 ERA, 5.04 ERA over his last 7 starts, excellent road numbers with a 2.34 ERA. Judge has been an issue for Gausman, 5 homers, overall, the Yankees are hitting .239 over 201 ABs against him. I'll take my chances to get these NRFI's take on track. 

NRFI - St. Louis Cardinals at Chicago Cubs (-128)

  • Afternoon baseball at Wrigley, I need action. The Cardinals are the 4th best NRFI team, Cubs are the 6th best. Javier Assad gets the call for Chicago, 3.23 ERA, 5.17 ERA over the last 7, 2.20 ERA at Wrigley. Erick Fedde makes his Cardinals debut, 3.11 ERA, 3.12 ERA over the last 7, 1.71 ERA in the first inning. Let's get 6 without a run. 

NRFI - Kansas City Royals at Detroit Tigers (-136)

  • Tarik Skubal for the Tigers, 2.35 ERA, 0.92 WHIP. 2.66 ERA over the last 7 starts, 1.95 ERA at home, 2.14 ERA in the first. Cole Ragans for the Royals, 3.37 ERA, 3.83 ERA over the last 7, 2.83 ERA on the road, 2.45 ERA in the first inning. This should be a made to order NRFI. Fingers crossed.
