Eduardo Escobar's .319 wOBA isn't anything special, but his 35.3% hard-hit rate and 12.7% soft-hit rate are both on pace to be the best marks of his career.
Tonight's matchup puts him in a great spot to turn those contact numbers into production, as the Minnesota Twins have the highest implied total on the slate (5.55).
He'll be up against Seattle Mariners right-hander Sam Gaviglio who, despite a 2.79 ERA, hasn't looked good in his six major league starts, posting a 4.48 SIERA while allowing a 34.4% hard-hit rate with only a 13.3% soft-hit rate.
His sample size against left-handed hitters is small (12 1/3 innings), but lefties have crushed him to the tune of a 42.1% hard-hit rate and only a 2.6% soft-hit rate.
