rays vs houston
jess niemann 3-0
8 starts so far 3 wins 0 losses but lets look beyond this and look into is way of pitching
here are the facts on this pitcher.
he hasnt gave up a home run in his last 4 games.
he has pitched atleast 6inn in every game so far this season except for his first game.so you can expect him to go atleast 6 inn tomorrow.
he hasnt gave up more than 3 runs this season.
he pitches 85-110 pitches per game expect 90-110 tomorrow.
his era is impressive at 2.54
his 3 wins came on the road so he knows how to win on the road.
so pitching report for tampa bay is something like this.
jeff will throw atleast 6inn pitched they have a full and ready bullpen since they didnt use but 1 guy on friday for 3 outs.
now for houston
wandy rodriguez 2-5 4.30 era
he has 8 starts as well
here are the facts
last 3 games
6.2 inn
6inn
3.2 inn
he has only had 2 7 inn games this season
he has a lower pitch count than jess for rays as he throws between
80-100 pitches.
he has a low walk rate as he only gives up 2 walks also only 1 home run in the last 3 games.
wandy tends to give up alot of hits in his short performances.
now the batting
tampa is 8-2 in there last 10 games
astros 4-6
rays are 2nd in baseball in batting what happend friday who knows but will it happen 2 nights in a row.my guess is rays will put up some runs.
astros on the other hand are worse team in baseball batting.so my guess is jeff will continue dominating.
the keys of the game are simple for both teams imo
rays need to get long at bats and force wandy to throw.he gives up alot of runs and he isnt good under pressue if you ask me.
as for rays pitching i cant say theres nothing wrong with it.
the key is batting.if the rays can bat good early they can win the game easily.if they cant bat good early than we can see a repeat of what happend a low scoring game and houston winning.
my guess is simple im expecting jeff to pitch atleast 6 inn with 1 -2 runs giving up maybe less.
rays on the other hand will need to bat and play smart baseball.
1 key thing and many dont factor this in is the fact the d.l isnt batting for the rays and the pitcher has to bat.it effects the rays batting as we seen.i can see adjustments being made for tomorrow.
im honestly expecting a blow out tomorrow by the rays.i expect them to get there bats going and a solid pitching performace.
tomorrow i will make my largest bet of the season on the rays.i hope most of you tail or follow.good luck everyone.
if there is a stat i missed out and you think its important for me to know about the astros might winning please let me know.
i just think the rays will play really hard and find them selfs in the win coloum again.

not to mention our bats were really slumping that week, hell all month till recently they have shown a little life....Wandy can be solid but like you said inconstant,usually good at home... TB been so good on the road and i really like that tall cat pitching for them, dont think he will struggle to get hou hitters out...id be lying if i didnt say your thing bout stros sweeping and screwin a bunch of ppl didnt scare me a little but seeing how i didnt play tb today and wont sunday if they lose 2marro it wont screw me that bad, i havnt even loked at the line yet its gotta be high, ill be back
