The Lake Merced Goutfish expanded their lead on Monday as they hold down the top spot over the Honolulu Hammerheads and Spokane Fightin' Fish who make up the top three positions in the standings. The Goutfish and Heads don't have a projected starter set for Tuesday, opening the door for teams to make a move.
Fightin' Fish Send a Trio to the Mound with Eyes on 1st
Tyler Glasnow continued his ascent into ace territory on Monday night with a 41 point outing, taking over the lead in pitcher points with 97.0 through 3 outings. Currently sitting in third place, the Fish hope to end the day in the top spot as Trevor Bauer (vs. COL), Luis Castillo (vs. SF) and Pablo Lopez (vs. ATL) are all scheduled to pitch with only Lopez set to face an above average offense. The Fish currently lead the lead the RDBL in innings pitched (100.0), games started (16), strikeouts (126), WHIP (0.93) and overall pitching points (304.0).
Crats Look to Get Pitching Back on Track
The Aristocrats have been in a funk on the mound over the last seven days, posting a league-worst 5.54 ERA while just 71.0 pitching points, lowest in the RDBL. The club will send Stephen Strasburg and Ryan Yarbrough to the mound on Tuesday with hopes of steadying the ship. The 'Crats enter Tuesday in 6th place overall and 2nd place in the Masters Division behind the Fightin' Fish.
Devils Look for Jumpstart
The Devils are hitting just .217/.296/.361 as a club through 438 at-bats, ranking 12th in offense and looking to get on a roll. One hole has been in the outfield as Draft Day acquisition Mike Yastrzemski has battled a hand injury and is just 4-for-33 on the season. Their pitching staff has been better of late, but innings have been an issue as the club has compiled 77.0 on the season, 23.0 less than the leading Fightin' Fish, while ranking 9th in the category. GM Jason Watson will send Blake Snell and Jameson Taillon to the mound Tuesday.
Grapes Look to Continue Hot Streak
The Asti Grape Stompers have posted a league-best 0.95 ERA and 0.89 WHIP over their last 47 1/3 innings, covering a span of seven days. The club looks to continue that hot streak as Marcus Stroman will jump back on the mound Tuesday following his shortened outing Sunday which was cancelled due to weather.
Falcons Seek Offense
The Maltese Falcons are unquestionably in a rebuilding year, but the club is still off to a disastrous start at the plate. Their group is hitting just .194/.290/.313 as a unit while hitting 10 home runs, the 2nd lowest mark in the RDBL. Draft Day additions Anthony Rizzo, Dansby Swanson, CJ Cron and Andrew Benintendi all enter Tuesday with sub-.200 averages.
