This Weeks Record: 8-4
Last Weeks Record: 15-10-1
Past Eight Weeks Record: 81-59-7
Freddie Freeman MORE than 6 Fantasy Points
Freeman missed 10 days due to personal family reasons, and since returning he has been great. He has at least one hit in seven of his past nine games, including four multi-hit games and four XBH. He is facing Tobias Myers of the Brewers who has pitched really well as of late, which would explain why this total is at 6 and not 7.5 or higher. Freeman is one of the most consistent hitters in MLB over the past five years and has proven to be matchup proof.
Max Fried MORE than 5.5 Strikeouts
Over his past three starts, despite giving up a lot of runs in two of them, Fried has been racking up strikeouts at a high rate. He has struck out six or more batters in each of the starts with a total of 22 K’s in his past 14 innings. He faces the Giants today in San Francisco which is one of the most pitcher friendly parks in the league. The Giants offense is ranked in the middle of the pack in almost every major offensive category.
Nick Pivetta MORE than 5 Strikeouts
Pivetta has struck out five or more batters in six straight starts, eight or more in four of those starts and ten or more in three of the starts. He has proven that even in starts where he doesn’t go deep into them, he can still rack up big strikeout numbers. He has been incredibly consistent too, striking out four or more batters in 12 straight starts.
Jose Quintana MORE than 5 Strikeouts
The Q-man has been surprisingly reliable for the Mets this season. Over the past couple of months his strikeout totals have been on the rise as well. He has struck out five or more batters in five of his past six starts and eight of his past ten starts. He is in a good matchup tonight too, facing the Oakland A’s who rank 27th in batting average, 24th in OBP, and 23rd in runs per game.
