Rockies vs Giants: There is plenty to like about Tyler Fitzgerald heading into tonight's matchup. He draws a favorable split, a weak arm, and elite projection data. With value on several of his props, the stars are aligning for the young second baseman to pop.

Rockies vs Giants Best Bet
Giants second baseman Tyler Fitzgerald enters today with an elite rating on Batters-Box.com. He draws the worst rated pitcher on the site—Rockies starter Kyle Freeland—who owns a poorly rated average hitter matchup wOBA, ISO, hard contact, strikeout percentage, and ground ball percentage. He is allowing over 40% hard contact this season, along with carrying a sub 6.00 ERA and a sub 1.50 WHIP.
Fitzgerald has only recorded 2 hits in his last 5 games, so progression feels due. Against lefties this season, he is batting .333 with a .919 OPS over 27 at bats. When holding an elite rating, the young stud records a hit 75% of the time, 2 hits 35% of the time, and hits a home run 25% of the time. That data comes from a 20 elite rating sample size.
I think taking his hit at $1.60 is well worth the squeeze. You can also sprinkle on his hits, runs, RBI prop or alternate over 1.5 bases for plus money. I highly endorse anything Tyler Fitzgerald this evening.
Best Bet: Tyler Fitzgerald Hit (-160) odds via BetOnline
