The read
I’m laying the hook with Pittsburgh because Braxton Ashcraft’s 3.02 ERA tells you he keeps games clean, and his 1.27 WHIP limits traffic. That plays into Colorado’s swing-happy middle, where Hunter Goodman has 117 strikeouts in 423 at-bats, so Ashcraft can get ahead and control counts. On the other side, Antonio Senzatela’s 7.00 ERA and 1.87 WHIP scream traffic and crooked numbers. Sure, Pittsburgh’s bats run hot and cold, but Senzatela’s .354 opponent average turns even light sticks into threats, and Bryan Reynolds’ 116 hits give them the finishing punch—have the guts to ride with me.
