Kohl Stewart Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections
Gabriel Moya will start and serve as an opener for the Twins on Tuesday; Kohl Stewart will follow
The Minnesota Twins have opted to continue occasionally utilizing an opening bullpen arm and will now force Kohl Stewart to come on in relief Tuesday evening to work a majority of the team’s innings, opposed to making his originally scheduled start. He’ll be replaced on the mound at the outset by Gabriel Moya, who, unlike Stewart, is a left-handed pitcher, so his brief presence on the bump shouldn’t alter the projections of the Detroit Tigers hitters in any significant fashion, especially since Christin Stewart is the only batter in the top half of the order that would sacrifice the platoon advantage. That said, still be sure to double check out the Starting Lineups page and projections in LinuepHQ for any notable changes prior to submitting lineups for tonight’s main slate.
Struggling rookie in a terrible spot
Kohl Stewart has walked seven and struck out just nine of 60 batters faced at the major league level so far, throwing a total of 11.2 innings over three starts. Batters from either side of the plate are above a .360 wOBA against him, though LHBs have put the ball on the ground 63% of the time on contact (44.4 Hard%). He's pitching in Cleveland tonight with the home team owning a 5.69 implied run line that's second best on the board. Beyond Jose Ramirez (179 wRC+, .354 ISO vs RHP this season), Francisco Lindor (129 wRC+, .254 ISO), Michael Brantley (140 wRC+, .183 ISO) and two power hitting first basemen, Melky Cabrera (95 wRC+, .153 ISO) and Jason Kipnis (82 wRC+, .133 ISO) may even be viable in this spot as well. Both have a wRC+ of at least 150 over the last week, along with a hard hit rate above 40%.
Hard hitting offense gets a park upgrade
The Oakland A's get a park upgrade in Minnesota tonight. That the park boosts specifically RH power is a special benefit for the team that has the top implied run line (5.44) by a fraction of a run over the Cubs tonight. Kohl Stewart is a marginally regarded prospect, but had just a 17.5 K% in 40.2 AAA innings this year and has walked more (five) than he's struck out (three) over his first two major league starts. Of his 27 batted balls, 17 have been on the ground with one popup, but 40.7% of them have an exit velocity above 95 mph. If you don't know what the A's do, they hit the ball HARD. Matt Olson (137 wRC+, .301 ISO vs RHP last calendar year), Matt Chapman (129 wRC+, .229 ISO), Khris Davis (149 wRC+, .311 ISO) and Stephen Piscotty (100 wRC+, .183 ISO) all have a hard hit rate above 40% vs RHP over the last calendar year. Nick Martini (132 wRC+, .130 ISO) and Jed Lowrie (139 wRC+, .213 ISO) exceed the league average hard hit rate as well.
