Today’s matchup is between the Milwaukee Brewers (25-25) and the Washington Nationals (21-25). The Brewers have won 3 of their last 5 games & the Nationals have won 3 of their last 5 games.
The Brewers are starting Freddy Peralta (RHP), on the mound who is 4-1 on the season pitching a 2.54 ERA, 2.94 FIP, .247 wOBA, K% of 38.4%, BB% of 11.6%, 86.6 MPH average exit velocity, and a 0.95 WHIP in 49.2 innings pitched.
The Nationals are starting Patrick Corbin (LHP), who is 3-3 on the season with a 6.13 ERA, 5.63 FIP, .381 wOBA, K% of 17.5%, BB% of 8.7%, 89.5 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.55 WHIP in 47.0 innings pitched.
The Brewers are 19th in the Majors in Relieving Pitching (WAR) while the Nationals are 20th.
On the hitting side, the Brewers have a .288 wOBA and a .295 OBP. The Nationals have a .318 wOBA and a .325 OBP. The Brewers have 54 HRs this season while the Nationals have 47 HRs.
Freddy Peralta is the real deal & has a crazy K% of 38%. With their relieving pitching at a push, the Nationals OBP being a bit higher, and the Brewers having more HR power I'll side with the Brewers.
