Oakland -1½ +145 over TAMPA BAY

7:10 PM EST. Sean Manea (LHP - OAK) has a nice 5/22 BB/K split after 24 innings covering four starts, Dude just keeps posting solid ratios across the board with pinpoint control and a 12.9% swing & miss rate. What sticks out to us is that Manea will face a Rays’ squad that is awful against southpaws with a .696 OPS, a .228 BA and more K’s against lefties than any team in the majors.

Rich Hill (LHP - TAM) looks to turn things around against an Oakland club that’s had more success against LHP (.768 OPS) versus RHP (.689 OPS) and ranks second in OPS on the road thus far (.759). Hill has allowed exactly four earned runs in every start this season, resulting in an 8.82 ERA, 1.53 WHIP, and 0/75% dominant start/disaster start split. Hill has made it out of the fifth inning once, and has surpassed 80 pitches twice. In addition, his 11.4% swing & miss rate and 30% K% from 2019 seems to be a sign of the past, as he’s generated a 7.4% swing & miss rate and 19% K% in ’21. Oakland comes in hot and also has a serious advantage in every pitching and hitting category. That’s enough for us to move in.
