Rockies Lineup vs. Hunter Greene (R) July 11

Charlie Blackmon and Ryan McMahon present a significant challenge for Greene, showcasing a .363 and .382 wOBA respectively against right-hand pitchers. While Tovar’s .178 ISO indicates potential for extra-base hits, McMahon’s .196 ISO and high strikeout rate might lead to both opportunities and risks. Greene’s impressive 25.6 K% and lower HR/9 rate of 0.78 could counter the Rockies’ power, impacting the Reds vs Rockies NRFI/YRFI odds.

Reds Lineup vs. Austin Gomber (L) July 11

Austin Slater and Elly De La Cruz are key for the Reds, with Slater’s .383 wOBA and De La Cruz’s .251 ISO against lefties highlighting their threat. Gomber’s higher WHIP of 1.29 and HR/9 of 1.52 are two areas of vulnerability that the Reds could exploit. However, Gomber’s decent K% and BB% indicate potential to manage the Reds’ lineup, adding an intriguing angle to the Reds vs Rockies NRFI/YRFI betting landscape.
