Phillies vs. Blue Jays Best Bet
Yes, yes, we are going back to my man, Kyle Schwarber today, as he is in yet another fantastic matchup.
Coming into today with just one hit in this series, which came last night, he finds himself with an elite rating on Batters-Box. When elite on the road, he records a hit 64% of the time. A total of 44% of the time it is a single, 37% goes over 1.5 bases, and 55% clears 1.5 hits, runs, and RBI. That is across a 54-game sample.
He will face his good friend Chris Bassitt this afternoon. People are already drooling over Schwarber's history against him. It means nothing to me, but for the record, he is 7-for-16 with two doubles, two home runs, and a 1.382 OPS.
The Blue Jays starter has zero pitches graded as a whole number, per FanGraphs. Left handed hitters are crushing him, batting .321 with an .867 OPS. At home, opponents are hitting .275, and during the day, .298.
For the price, I have to be on Schwarber. He kills every pitch in Bassitt's arsenal and has had enough success off him to be worth the mention.
