00:00
Will a new streak start tonight in Minneapolis?
00:03
The Twins, a favorite to make that the case.
00:06
The Guardians trying to snap a four-game skid of their own.
00:11
So what happens tonight, DRS, in the Twin Cities?
00:14
Will the Twins start a new wind streak?
00:16
Will the Guardians snap a four-game slide?
00:19
I'm not loving the weather conditions in Minnesota either tonight, Ben.
00:22
55-degree temperatures, but a 15-mile-an-hour sustained wind blowing
00:26
directly in from center field.
00:28
We'll see how that plays into it tonight.
00:30
And the shame of it is, Logan Allen, the left-handed starting pitching
00:32
for the Cleveland Guardians, who have a road start,
00:34
which you usually try to pick on those type of players.
00:36
They're more comfortable at home typically than on the road.
00:39
If we look at 23 total pitchers on the card today, you know who's dead last in XFIP.
00:42
You got it.
00:43
It's Logan Allen of the Cleveland Guardians.
00:45
41 in the third innings pitch.
00:46
A decent ERA at 3.70, but that XFIP is at a 5.04.
00:51
That's in the danger territory.
00:53
Why?
00:53
Specifically, it doesn't strike out a lot of batters.
00:55
And also, looking at the lineup today, expected back for the Twins,
00:59
Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa.
01:01
And by the way, if they weren't back, that lineup is totally shot tonight
01:05
against left-handed pitching because those are the only two batters
01:08
that seem like to be able to hit left-handed pitching.
01:10
Jeffress has a low ISO but a high weighted on-base percentage.
01:13
Cody Clemens, who's a left-handed batter, but only five at-bats against lefties
01:16
in the past 30 days.
01:17
You don't really want to add up.
01:18
So for me, I'm looking at this game and saying,
01:20
I don't really like the pitcher on the mound for Logan Allen,
01:22
but he's really going to get helped out by the lineup of the Twins
01:25
and also the weather conditions for the Twins.
01:27
Over on the opposite side, shaping up a little bit better the past 30 days
01:30
as opposed to the full season.
01:32
A better lineup for the Cleveland Guardians.
01:34
But the weather conditions don't suit.
01:35
That's a pitcher's ballpark with the wind blowing in and cooler temperatures.
01:38
Maybe the pitchers have it better than the hitters tonight, Ben.
