Yankees lineup vs. Zach Eflin (R)

Juan Soto and Alex Verdugo bring left-handed power against Eflin, with Soto’s .423 wOBA and .271 ISO standing out. Aaron Judge, a right-handed hitter, also poses a threat with a .449 wOBA and .366 ISO. Eflin’s low BB% at 2 and WHIP of 1.15 indicate control, but the Yankees’ high ISO and wOBA figures suggest the potential for early runs, impacting NRFI odds negatively. Eflin’s HR/9 rate of 1.27 and the Yankees’ power hitters could influence MLB odds towards YRFI.

Rays lineup vs. Marcus Stroman (R)

Despite Stroman’s solid NRFI/YRFI record of 13-5, the Rays’ lineup has potential challenges, with Isaac Paredes and Brandon Lowe showing power and on-base capabilities, Paredes with a .350 wOBA and .199 ISO, Lowe with a .325 wOBA and .228 ISO. Stroman’s K% at 17.1 and BB% at 10.1 suggest he can be gotten to, especially by left-handers like Lowe.
