Positives for the Tampa Bay Rays Game Today

Rogers Centre ranks as the #3 venue in the game for home runs, per the leading projection system (THE BAT).

Rogers Centre has the 9th-shallowest CF fences in the league.

Ian Seymour is an extreme flyball pitcher (38.4% FB% per the leading projection system, THE BAT) and has the misfortune of pitching in the #3 HR venue among all parks today.

Out of all the teams on the slate today, the 3rd-weakest infield defense belongs to the Tampa Bay Rays.

Ian Seymour’s 91-mph fastball velocity this year grades out in the 19th percentile among all starting pitchers.

According to the leading projection system (THE BAT)’s judgement, Kevin Gausman’s overall pitching ability grades out in the 76th percentile out of all starters in Major League Baseball right now.

Kevin Gausman has averaged 96.2 adjusted pitches per start this year, checking in at the 95th percentile.

Negatives with the Toronto Blue Jays Game Today

Rogers Centre has the 8th-highest fence height (on average) among all parks.

This game is forecasted to have the 14th-most favorable conditions for pitching among all the games scheduled today.

Ian Seymour was firing on all cylinders in his previous start and allowed 0 ER.

Despite conventional wisdom, fastballs are generally a pitcher’s least effective pitch. Ian Seymour must realize this, because he has used his off-speed and breaking pitches a lot this year: 62.6% of the time, grading out in the 83rd percentile.

Ian Seymour has compiled a 3.16 FIP (Fielding Independent Pitching, an estimator of ERA that is concerned with the things most within a pitcher’s control) this year, checking in at the 89th percentile.

Kevin Gausman’s high utilization rate of his fastball (54.1% this year) is likely dampening his results, since they are typically much less effective than breaking or off-speed pitches.

Kevin Gausman has been one of the luckiest mound aces in the game on balls in play this year with a .258 BABIP and should see that luck normalize going forward.

In his previous start, Kevin Gausman was on point and gave up 2 ER.
