Kody Clemens, Twins (+350, Hard Rock Bet)
"Kody Clemens has the platoon advantage against Angels right-handed pitcher Grayson Rodriguez and has a .855 OPS against right-handed pitching this season in 248 plate appearances, with 14 of his 16 home runs coming off right-handed pitching this season," Fetner said. "For context, he's only posting a .661 OPS against left-handed pitching, so this is clearly the better matchup for him. Left-handed batters are hitting a 1.088 OPS against Rodriguez in 67 plate appearances â when both the batter and pitcher splits align like this, it's a strong combination. Rodriguez has been struggling â a 9.53 ERA over his last three starts, allowing 12 earned runs in 11 â innings."
