- King of the Hill – Morton (TBR)
- My Value Pick today is Strahm (SDP) at home versus the Giants.
- San Fran vs. LH Starters away have allowed them to average
- 32.7 FanDuel ppg (6th Highest – MLB Average is 26.29 ppg)
- 19.3 DraftKings ppg (3rd Highest – MLB Average is 13.55 ppg)
- San Fran vs. LHP away have a:
- 0.249 wOBA (Worst in MLB)

- San Fran vs. LH Starters away have allowed them to average

My Method
Matchup Rating is meant to show how the pitcher’s matchup relates to league average. A rating of 100 means that this matchup is neither good nor bad to the pitcher. A matchup over 100 favors the pitcher and conversely, a matchup up less than 100 favors the hitters. It takes into account:
- The pitcher’s wOBA, ISO and K%
- The opposing lineup’s wOBA, ISO and K% versus RHP/LHP
- Home/away splits
- Ballpark Factor
- Fantasy points allowed to starting pitchers by opposing lineup (link)
If you are looking for bats to stack take a look at the pitchers at the bottom of this list and where the Matchup Rating is below 90. While not always the case, typically when a pitcher scores a low total (perhaps even negative) that means they are probably getting lit up by the opposing lineup.
