Rubby De La Rosa may not be the most efficient pitcher or sport a favorable ERA, but xFIP and SIERA show that he's pitching very well while surpassing his career high in innings pitched set last season with Boston. Now, he gets to face the Phillies in the desert Monday.
Give credit to the Phillies for hitting a respectable .251 on the road, but their .673 OPS puts them among the six worst teams in baseball. Philly is the proud owner of the worst team WAR in the Majors, including a 2.6 team batting WAR. No team hits home runs at a slower pace than the Phillies, who average 56.8 at-bats between homers.
