NRFI/YRFI 4/21

NRFI -120 (Bet to -130)

Starting Pitchers: Ross Stripling vs. Tanner Bibee

This game has a 7.5-run total that most books have juiced slightly to the under, making it an excellent NRFI candidate. Guardians starter Tanner Bibee has less than ideal splits the first time through the order, but he's taking on the poor A's offense. Cleveland is better offensively, but Ross Stripling is very solid early in games, so it balances out in our favor both ways.

NRFI -130 (Bet to -135)

Starting Pitchers: Colin Rea vs. Sonny Gray

This is another game with a 7.5-run total juiced to the under. Like the game above, the pitcher with worse early game splits (Colin Rea) has an easier matchup, and the better offense on paper (Brewers) is without one of its two best hitters in Christian Yelich.

NRFI -105 (Bet to -130)

Starting Pitchers: Chris Bassitt vs. Joe Musgrove

While these are two top-10 offenses, this pick is all about the pitchers. Both starters had xFIP numbers the first time through the order right around 3.00 last season, which is considerably better than their full-game numbers. Musgrove has struggled a bit to start the new season, but that seems to be mostly bad luck. His BABIP against is .397 this season, and his Swinging Strike Rate is higher than last year, so he's due for some positive regression anyway.
