Pickswise was nice enough to give me the opportunity to write up my plays for you all. For those of you who don't know me, they refer to me as JutPicks on Twitter. I post all my plays with brief writeups every day. Now I get to write even more with no character limit!
I pride myself on being as transparent as they come. My MLB record from last season and this season is listed in my bio. On the year, I've recorded 151 wins and 104 losses for a gain of +34.48 units. Without further ado, let's dive into my favorite play for Wednesday.
Joe Ryan (MIN) under 5.5 hits allowed (-110)
We have day-time baseball between division rivals the Minnesota Twins and Detroit Tigers. 26-year old Joe Ryan will take the mound for the Twins in his 3rd start versus the Tigers. Ryan has looked magical in both previous starts and we're backing him today to do the same.
The Tigers possess one of the best matchups for Ryan. In the last month, the Tigers batting average versus right-handed pitching is .214; 3rd worst during that span. They're also striking out at a top 5 rate which Ryan excels at. He stuck out 9 and 7 Tigers' batters this season while only giving up 5 hits combined in 12.2 innings pitched.
