DAILY MATCHUPS: Bieber ready to beast
Sep 17 2022
Today's Overview/Schedule/Weather: Thanks to a couple of doubleheaders today, we get 17 games in total. Weather forecasts look good around the country, but 15+ MPH winds are expected to affect the game in San Francisco (LA@SF).
Notable Starts:
There are several reasons to be confident in Shane Bieber having the best matchup rating today. First, Twins batters are struggling on the road: Bottom-5 ranks in MLB in strikeout rate, AVG, OPS, ISO, wOBA, and wRC+ since August 1. Second, over his last month (34.2 IP), Shane Bieber recorded an elite 24.4% K-BB rate. Finally, while home/road ERA splits do not favor Bieber today, his ERA peripherals at home are actually better than on the road.
