Eduardo Rodriguez is a reverse splits left hander who really struggles against left handed hitters. He enters today’s game with a 5.36 xfip and 19.2% strikeout rate this year. Against left handed hitters he has been really bad allowing a 429 woba 298 iso and 46% hard contact rate
Yordan Alvarez jumps off the page here, and he’s on my short list as TOP PLAY OF THE DAY in this matchup. This season Alvarez has a 518 xwoba 259 iso and 53% hard contact rate against left handed pitching. Look for at least one DONG in this matchup vs Rodriguez today
Kyle Tucker – 189 iso vs lefties can be played as well as a one off or in apart of your Astros stacks, but he’s not as good vs left handers as Alvarez (but who is?)
The Astros have a few right handed hitters that smash left handed pitching and I’ll be targeting them heavily tonight.
Jose Altuve – 453 woba 350 iso this season
Alex Bregman – 456 woba 261 iso vs LHP in the last 30 days
Yuli Gurriel – 356 woba 185 iso vs LHP dating back to the 2021 season
Trey Mancinini – 346 woba 184 iso dating back to the 2021 season
Chas McCormick – 372 woba 242 iso vs LHP dating back to the 2021 season
I’ll be loading up on Astros today in this matchup
