Well the day games went very much as I thought they would. I liked the A's and the Rockies under, and those both worked out beautifully. Hopefully that means I'll have a good night and get on a roll here to finish up the month.
First up, the Brew Crew. I like the matchup a lot, as the Brewers are looking to start a winning streak with their ace on the mound. As bad as the Brewers have been on the road, the Pirates have been worse in the past 10 days only hitting .197 against RHP.
Sheets did great in his last start until the 7th inning where he gave up all 6 of the runs charged against him only recording 1 out. Outside of the one start coming off injury, his control has been awesome this year. The same can not be said for Snell who has struggled with control at some point in almost every start. Snell told reporters that he didn't know why he has done so bad this year, and also said he's going to stop nibbling and start trusting his stuff... stuff that has been very mediocre this year on the whole.
This seems like a good spot for Sheets to get his team on track for back to back wins and for the struggling Snell to continue to wonder what's wrong with his arm this year against a potent Brewers lineup that woke up last night. Everyone but Prince got a hit. He should get going tonight as he is 6 for 12 against Snell. I don't expect Gagne to be called in if there is a save situation tonight after giving up a couple last night.
KEY TRENDS...
Pirates are 4-0 in Snells last 4 starts vs. Brewers. (He hasn't won 4 or 5 starts against any other team)
Pirates are 4-0 in Snells last 4 home starts.
Pirates are 0-5 in Snells last 5 starts as a home underdog.
Pirates are 4-12 in Snells last 16 starts as an underdog.
Brewers are 7-1 in Sheets' last 8 road starts.
Brewers are 1-9 in their last 10 road games.
Brewers are 6-1 in Sheets' last 7 starts during game 2 of a series.
Brewers are 0-6 in their last 6 during game 2 of a series.
