Game 112 Preview: Tampa Bay Rays vs Toronto Blue Jays

Related Topics: Tampa Bay Rays, Drew Smyly, Toronto

Coming off one of his better outings of the season, starting LHP Drew Smyly will hope to continue that success against Toronto's right handed sluggers. I added a column for IFFB% to show how dominating Smyly is in that regard. Popups are essentially strikeouts in that they are free outs, so Smyly gets a free out from more than 38% of his batters faced. Let's hope that continues tonight.

Marco Estrada Scouting Report:

If you're thinking Smyly's IFFB% doesn't seem very dominating when compared to Estrada, it's because the latter leads the majors in the category.
