Cleveland is also tied for 17th in wRC+ (96) with a 23% strikeout rate in the previous 30 days. Thus, the Yankees are -220 favorites, and the game’s total is a pitcher-friendly 7.5 runs.
Davis Martin is having a sensational season, and he’s in exceptional form. In his previous five starts, totaling 30.2 innings, he’s posted the following numbers:
- 4 wins
- 4 quality starts
- 2.05 ERA
- 2.25 xERA

- 0.88 WHIP
- 5.0% walk rate
- 31.9% strikeout rate
- 17.3% SwStr%
- 32.8% CSW%
Martin has a decent matchup and OK betting info. The Twins are tied for 18th in wRC+ (96) with a 24% strikeout rate versus righties and tied for 15th in wRC+ (102) with a 21.2% strikeout rate at home this year.
Minnesota is also 19th in wRC+ (94) with a 25% strikeout rate in the previous 30 days. The White Sox are -125 favorites, and the game’s total is eight runs.
Jameson Taillon is a risky pick. Nevertheless, he’s an enticing SP2 in GPPs on DraftKings. Taillon has recorded a 3.45 ERA, 3.83 xFIP, 1.06 WHIP, 6.1% walk rate and 22.7% strikeout rate in 86 innings at home since last season.

The Athletics are 10th in wRC+ (105) with a 20.9% strikeout rate versus righties and tied for 18th in wRC+ (92) with a 24.2% strikeout rate on the road this season. Additionally, the Cubs are -125 favorites, and the game’s total is eight runs.
Suggested Lineup Stacks
In a dozen starts this season, Andrew Abbott has a 3.88 ERA, 4.95 xERA, 4.88 xFIP and 5.06 SIERA. The 27-year-old lefty has outkicked his ERA estimators through 87 starts and 476.1 innings in his career.
Still, Great American Ball Park is a hitter-friendly venue, and Abbott has a 5.28 ERA in 30.2 innings at home this year. The Reds also have the fourth-highest bullpen ERA (5.00) in 2026. Kansas City’s lineup isn’t appealing near the bottom of the order, but four players are featured below, making for a compelling and affordable stack.
The Yankees don’t have the softest matchup tonight, but, like Andrew Abbott, Joey Cantillo is outkicking his ERA estimators. Cleveland’s lefty has a 3.57 ERA in a dozen starts this year, but his 4.07 xERA, 4.52 xFIP and 4.68 SIERA don’t support it.
Six of New York’s projected starters are above-average hitters against lefties, with five posting at least a 109 wRC+ against southpaws since 2024, and three besting a 140 wRC+.
