Pirates vs Antonio Senzatela
The Pittsburgh Pirates are facing Antonio Senzatela of the Colorado Rockies in their upcoming game, and there are a few batters on the Pirates’ roster who are worth considering for a stack.
Bryan Reynolds is projected to bat second and has been slugging .581 in his last 300 plate appearances against right-handers with low strikeout rates like Senzatela over the past two seasons. Ke’Bryan Hayes is projected to bat first and has an OPS of .898 against Senzatela in the same timeframe.
Jack Suwinski is projected to bat sixth and has been slugging .516 in 91 at-bats since last season, although he has been struggling in his last five games. Andrew McCutchen, projected to bat third, has struggled against Senzatela in the past, batting just .154 in 13 at-bats.
Carlos Santana is projected to bat fourth but has been batting just .208 against right-handers with low strikeout rates over the past two seasons. Connor Joe, projected to bat fifth, has been struggling recently, batting just .188 in his last 48 at-bats.
Ji-Hwan Bae and Rodolfo Castro are projected to bat eighth and seventh respectively, with limited matchup data available. Austin Hedges is projected to bat ninth and has been batting just .183 against right-handers who rely heavily on the slider like Senzatela.
Tucupita Marcano and Miguel Andujar are potential batters to consider, but they have limited data available. Finally, Chris Owings has limited matchup data available, but the data that is available favors Senzatela.
Overall, Reynolds and Hayes are the strongest considerations for a Pirates stack against Senzatela, with Suwinski potentially adding value if he can regain his form from earlier in the season.
