The Reds host the Cardinals for game 2 of their 3 game series. For the Cardinals, Kwang Hyun Kim will take the mound posting a 1.08 era with a whip of 0.9. Kim is 1-0 this season with just 7 strike outs. Kim has a decent exit velocity, but I still expect his era to regress a little bit over the course of the season. The Cardinals are batting .237 as a team with a woba of .309.
The Reds will send out Sonny Gray to the mound who has a 1.94 era and a whip of 1.01. Gray is 5-1 this season with 55 strike outs. Gray has a pretty solid exit veloicty at 86.6 so I wouldn't expect his era to regress too much this season. The Reds are batting .216 as a team with a woba of .312.
I have to rock with the Reds, especially with Sonny Gray on the mound. Kim's stats are amazing but after a few more games I see him regressing into the pitcher he really is.
