00:00The Astros and the Rays in what is a basic pick-em,
00:03with Houston having a slight home edge.
00:05Minus 116 in the updated numbers on that money line.
00:08Total now up by a hook.
00:09Eight and a half for today's game between Tampa and Houston.
00:13What do you like here in the H-Town Showdown?
00:15One of my favorite pitchers in Major League Baseball on the mound,
00:17Ryan Mucho Gusto.
00:20You got to like that guy.
00:21And why do you like him?
00:22His last 70 batters had his face, guys.
00:23Check this out.
00:24A 281 ISO power number against.
00:27A weighted on-base percentage of 435 against.
00:30And you'll love this.
00:31A walk rate of 17%.
00:33That's unheard of.
00:35Like a terrible walk rate for a pitcher is like 9%.
00:37He's double that at this point.
00:39And usually you say to yourself, okay, Tampa Bay doesn't have great baseball,
00:42you know, great hitters per se.
00:43Well, those numbers have really jumped up this year.
00:45Why?
00:45Because they're actually playing a ballpark that allows for hits and home runs.
00:48Now, they're not there today.
00:49They're in Houston.
00:50That's still a great hitters ballpark even though it is a dome
00:52and we don't get the heat and humidity in there.
00:54Look at the first five batters he anticipated to go up against Gusto today
00:57who's a right-handed batter.
00:5836 at-bats, 71, 57, 66, and 62.
01:02A really good feel.
01:04212, 270, 204, 180, and 213.
01:07Those are the ISO power numbers against right-handed pitching.
01:09Look at the weighted on-base percentages.
01:11358, 420, 348, 375, and 324.
01:14For me, it's simple.
01:15It's a little bit juicy.
01:16Team total over with the Tampa Bay Rays today at 3.5.
01:20It was coming in this morning around like a minus 150, minus 145 price on FanDuel.
01:24I think it makes a lot of sense there where you're saying,
01:26I don't know if they can win,
01:27but you better be getting four runs off my guy, Mucho Gusto, out there.
