Anthony Rizzo is having a monster, MVP-caliber season. He’s sporting a .435 wOBA with 10 jacks, and he’s walked (22) more than he’s struck out (18).
Rizzo, a southpaw, has always fared better against right-handers, and he gets one today in San Diego’s Cesar Vargas, who owns a 4.86 SIERA over 16 1/3 career innings..
Anthony Rizzo | Plate Appearances | wOBA | Home Runs |
---|---|---|---|
vs. LHP | 763 | .335 | 27 |
vs. RHP | 1,903 | .372 | 85 |
Our models project Rizzo to score 13.92 points, which checks in as Tuesday’s fifth-best score for a hitter. As with Lester, the only negative here is there is a 50 percent chance of rain.
