Tampa Bay Rays vs. Colorado Rockies
Saturday, April 06, 2024 – 08:10 PM ET at Coors Field
The AI Model believes the Rays will earn a 6-5 victory over the Rockies. Neither team has started off the season strong. However, the Rays have a much better track record than the Rockies over the last couple of seasons.
Rockies’ Lefty Lament
The Rays typically start the season strong, but that hasn’t happened this year. However, they’ll send out Tyler Alexander, a lefty thrower who will essentially face a Rockies lineup that is awful against lefties.
The Rockies’ projected lineup has combined to hit a .302 wOBA and struck out 25.2% of the time against lefties since last season. That’s concerning, especially with six of the batters batting from the right side against the lefty.
Feltner’s Challenge
On the other hand, the Rockies will pitch Ryan Feltner, who gave up a .211 ISO and wOBA of .370 in his first start of the year.
Feltner is known for low strikeouts and high walks. That’s not ideal since the Rays have struck out just 21.4% of the time against righties and have walked 9.6% of the time since last season. The Rays have way more power potential and have hit a much higher wOBA heading into this game.
Let’s back the Rays on the road. I’m with the AI Model.
