This Weeks Record: 8-4-1
Last Weeks Record: 8-11
Past Six Weeks Record: 56-43-5
Juan Soto MORE than 7.5 Fantasy Points
Soto is, of course, one of the best hitters in MLB and is having an MVP-type season. Tonight, he and the Yankees head back home after a long but successful road trip, and they face the last-place Blue Jays. Although the Jays are throwing their top pitcher in Kevin Gausman, Gausman has struggled this season with a 4.44 ERA and 1.26 WHIP. His walks are up and so are his HR allowed. That is very dangerous for a pitcher who has to face Juan Soto and Aaron Judge. The Jays bullpen is bad as well, so look for Soto and the Yankees to score runs late, too.
Spencer Schwellenbach MORE than 5.5 Strikeouts
Although the rookie has been inconsistent in terms of ER allowed from start to start, the one constant for him has been racking up strikeouts. Over his past seven starts, he has struck out six or more batters six times and seven or more four times. In his past two starts, he has 19 K’s in 13 innings of work. Tonight, he faces a weak-hitting Marlins lineup that has gotten even worse this week following the trades of Josh Bell, Bryan De La Cruz and Jazz Chisolm
Garrett Hampson Less than 0.5 Hits
Hampson isn’t a very good hitter to begin with, and when he does play, it is usually because a LHP is on the mound. Tonight, that LHP is the best pitcher in baseball right now, Tarik Skubal. I find it hard to envision a scenario in which Hampson is able to get a hit off of Skubal, and another thing to consider here is that once Skubal is out of the game, there’s a good chance that Hampson will be pinch hit for.
Gunnar Henderson MORE than 7 Fantasy Points
Henderson has been amazing all season long, and over his past his past eight games he has at least one hit in every game. He has scored seven runs during that time with three XBH and three RBI. He is in a great matchup tonight against Guardians SP Carlos Carrasco, who is 3-9 this season with a 5.68 ERA and 1.40 WHIP. The Orioles should be one of the higher-scoring teams tonight, and Henderson will be right in the middle of it all.
