Reds @ Rockies – First Pitch: 8:40 p.m.
The Reds vs. Rockies MLB showdown is one to watch, with the classic high-scoring Coors Field totals firmly in place. Hunter Greene, the Reds’ starter, surprisingly enters this game as a road favorite (-125). However, the eye-popping total of 11.5 for the game adds a layer of excitement.
Greene’s recent stats indicate that he’s had a rough patch over the past 30 days. His xFIP is hovering close to 5, which is not what we’d expect from a pitcher of his caliber. What’s intriguing is his success against left-handed batters, holding them to a .237 weighted on-base percentage (wOBA) over the last month from 54 at-bats. However, right-handed hitters have given him trouble, posting a substantial .398 wOBA with an ISO of .240. This could spell trouble at Coors Field.
Checking on the weather, it’s not an ideal day for a game in Colorado. With temperatures hovering around 64 degrees and potential showers, it’s far from the usual 75 to 80-degree conditions that usually fuel high-scoring games.
On the Rockies side, Connor Seabold has had a rough 30 days as well, with a high xFIP of 5.64. His wOBA against lefties is a whopping .338, and righties are hitting him at a .361 clip. Both pitchers seem likely to be hit tonight, but the weather conditions might play a crucial role in the game’s outcome.
This matchup between the Reds and the Rockies promises intrigue, despite the less-than-ideal weather conditions. It’s a meeting of struggling pitchers in a traditionally high-scoring venue, adding an extra layer of suspense.
