00:00Kumar Rocker gets the start tonight minus 146 price in favor of Texas at home total stands at
00:07nine and a half there's a couple of nines on the docket today and a bunch of eights and eights and
00:13a half DRS highest total of the night that's down in Arlington where we see some offense as the
00:19odds makers expect could be didn't get very much offense last night particularly from Los Angeles
00:24aside maybe they bounced back today Kumar Rocker on the mound last year only 55 batters faced and
00:28again not really a big imprint or footprint I should say this year how about this 55 batters
00:32faced as well struggling though a 224 iso power number and a weighted on base percentage of 433
00:37just look at the lineup that presents today for the Angels outside of Luis Rangifo and Tim Anderson
00:43everybody is high iso power number and high weighted on base percentage if we take a look at some of
00:48Kumar Rocker's numbers coming into this year only 11 and a third innings pitch which is low but an ERA
00:53of close to eight and an XFIP number of 4.79 so he's not pitching as bad as his ERA is but still
00:58not pitching all that well on the opposite side I believe it's I haven't seen the guy live pitch yet
01:03is it's Kachanowicz I want to say or is it Kachanowicz I want to say I'm gonna go Kachanowicz
01:08let me find that for you yeah left hand or excuse me against lefties this year he is struggling at 273
01:14iso and a 336 weighted on base percentage low walk rate but a low k rate which is usually detrimental
01:19so you want to take a look at some of those left-handed batters in the middle of that lineup
01:22Corey Seager not a lot of power numbers against right-handed pitchers so far 108 iso but that
01:28weighted on base percentage is decent at a 345 and a low k rate and a high walk rate also Josh
01:33Smith here at a 194 iso and a weighted on base percentage of 470 can make some sense the one
01:38guy I'd love to take in this lineup is Jock Peterson but he doesn't have very good numbers
01:41against right-handed pitching so far so you sort of lean with the trust that that Rangers lineup will
01:46figure it out late tonight and also still trusting in the early numbers holding up for the Los Angeles
01:51Angels going up against Kumar Rocker we probably should see runs tonight with a couple good instances
01:56from a side perspective don't love it all that much though
