DAILY MATCHUPS: Hot Springs ready to take on Oakland

Today's Overview/Schedule/Weather: There are a full 15 games on today’s slate after a few Friday days off. Rain could cause a delay in Atlanta (SD @ ATL), and while it’s expected to clear up, there will still be 10+ MPH winds to contend with.

 

Notable Starts: 

Coming off a gem in his last start and lined up to face the light-hitting Athletics, Jeffrey Springs should deliver on his lofty matchup rating. Oakland is on their first road trip of the season this weekend, and their struggles on the road in 2022 resulted in Bottom-7 ranks in MLB in strikeout rate, wOBA, and wRC+. At home last year, Springs recorded a 2.23 ERA and 1.10 WHIP. So far this season, A’s hitters have Bottom-10 ranks against LHP in wOBA and wRC+.
