Uncover Saturday’s MLB Best Bets: Can We Extend the Winning Streak Beyond Friday’s Perfect Record?
His 4.70 Fielding Independent Pitching (“FIP”) is better than Pfaadt’s 5.14 FIP. That stat is more predictive than ERA because it removes factors outside the pitcher’s control. Also, Alcántara’s 108 Stuff+ ranks 19th among starting pitchers, while Pfaadt’s 97 Stuff+ is 89th, according to FanGraphs.Â
Finally, Arizona’s bullpen has a worse ERA, FIP, and WAR, and Miami’s lineup has been raking this past week. Per FanGraphs, the Marlins are top-5 in WAR, wRC+, wOBA, and hard-hit rate over that span.Â
