00:00This game is going to start at 135 Eastern if we play between the raindrops, 901-902.
00:05Colek's going to be on the mound for San Diego, making his debut in Major League Baseball this year.
00:09Did pitch last year. Interesting numbers coming up.
00:11Andrew Heaney, go figure. Having a resurgence here in Pittsburgh, the left-handed pitcher.
00:15This line opened up roughly a pick-em, Tom. Still roughly a pick-em across the board.
00:19Eight and a half, so I've turned it to nines on the total today.
00:22Colek, Heaney, Padres, Pittsburgh.
00:25Yeah, as you said, Colek, this is his first start this season.
00:28He had 46 innings pitched last year.
00:30Listen, a 3.46 XFIP, pretty good.
00:3418% strikeout rate, below average, only 5% walk rate.
00:37He did allow a 173 ISO versus righties last year.
00:40Keep that in mind.
00:41Andrew Heaney, like, this is a pitcher I think should be getting hit so much harder than he currently is.
00:45Like, I think he's getting a little bit lucky.
00:47He does have a 368 XFIP, which is good.
00:4922% strikeout rate, 6% walk rate.
00:52He's not allowing runners on base for free.
00:5442% ground ball rate and 57% medium contact rate.
00:57He's a pitcher that can get hit hard by righties, especially when he gives up the power.
01:01At least that's the pitcher he was historically.
01:03I think this game screams runs because I'm not buying into Heaney being this good.
01:08And I don't think Colek has proven himself over a large enough sample size.
01:12Granted, it's against a bad Pirates lineup.
01:15But I think the Pirates do enough to get to him.
01:18And the Padres add in the runs that they normally do.
01:20Like, this game is over for me.
01:21Keep in mind.
