The Hot Corner: Plays for Saturday, May 20th
Great day yesterday - should've had Wisdom finish off the hit parlay but he got subbed after two plate appearances. Back to the lab we go
Be sure to follow @wyexpect for updates on this article throughout the day.
Lucas Giolito O6.5 Ks -130
*KC allows 9th most Ks in L3 (10)
*KC strikes out 24.8% vs RHP in L30
*There are 5 hitters in the lineup who strike out @%%+
Giolito had 9 strike outs vs KC last matchup - 7 is solid - let's ride!
Alek Manoah U4.5 Ks -114
*BAL strikes out 20.8% vs RHP in L30
*BAL is 2nd least in Ks per game in L3 (6)
*Only one batter in the lineup who strikes out 25%+
Manoah's struggles have been apparent - this Orioles lineup should continue the struggles.
Adley Rutschman / Bryce Harper 1+ Hits Each -113
*Rutschman has hit well vs Manoah & hits better against RHP
*Harper has hit well vs Taillon & MASHES vs RHP
Hunter Brown O6.5 Ks -121
*OAK strikes out 27.6% vs RHP
*OAK has 5 strike out targets in the lineup
This line is high but the way the A's been swinging the bats I could see Brown push to get close to 10.
Paul DeJong / Freddie Freeman 1+ Hit Each +106
*DeJong has hit exceptionally well vs Syndergaard & mashes vs RHP
*Freddie Freeman has hit well vs Mikolas & mashes RHP
Patrick Sandoval O5.5 Ks -104
*MIN allows most Ks in L3 (13)
*MIN strikes out 25.8% vs LHP
*MIN has 6 strike out targets in this lineup
I know Sandoval is a hard to bet on as he has only covered once - but against the team who strikes out the most and 6 targets in the lineup - I'm game.
Joe Musgrove U5.5 Ks-130
*BOS strikes out 18.8% vs RHP in L30
*BOS allows 3rd least Ks in L3 (6.67)
*Only one hitter in the lineup is a strikeout target
Musgrove has only gone over once all season and this matchup represents a stingy lineup vs RHP.
