MLB Sleeper Picks Player Predictions
Sleeper Record: 95-48
Mitchell Parker has been a solid addition to the Nationals staff. He ranks in the 81st percentile in xERA, 79th in xFIP, 77th in BB% and 84th in GB%. As for this player prediction, he has stayed under it in six of his nine starts, including an outing against Atlanta just over a week ago. He allowed five hits while pitching into the sixth inning in Atlanta. The Braves are mid-pack in terms of average (.252) and wRC+ (104) facing lefties over the past 30 days. The primary reason for this play comes down to the price we are getting.
Reynaldo Lopez is coming off his best strikeout performance of the season, but that was against Oakland, who strikes out a ton. Lopez squares off with the Nationals in this one, who conversely, do not strike out a ton. They are 20th in K% (21.9%) over the past 30 days against righties. Fourteen of the last 20 right-handers to face them have stayed under this line, so let’s bank on that trend continuing for Lopez. He has stayed under this in six of his 10 outings. The Braves typically don’t let him work past a pitch count in the mid-80s.
It is very difficult to strike out the Guardians. They are 28th in K% (18.7%) over the past 30 days against righties. Eleven of the last 17 right-handers over this span have stayed under this line, and it’s not like Brady Singer is known for his strikeout prowess. Cleveland is more than familiar with his work, too, having faced him a combined 138 times. They have struck out at a paltry 13.8% K% and own a .386 xwOBA against him.
