Player Analysis
Kyle Freeland has had a challenging season so far, sporting a record of 2-3 with an ERA of 5.63 over 48.0 innings pitched. His WHIP stands at 1.54, indicating he has allowed more than one and a half baserunners per inning. Freeland has given up 60 hits, struck out 34 batters, and walked 14, while allowing 6 home runs. Despite his struggles, Freeland has occasionally shown flashes of the pitcher he can be, particularly in games where he manages to keep his walks and home runs down.
Opposing Analysis
Freeland will be facing a Giants lineup that has been mediocre this season. The Giants rank 16th in runs scored with 445 and 13th in batting average at .247. They have been decent at putting the ball in play, ranking 11th in hits with 863. However, their power numbers are not overwhelming, and they have had issues with consistency. If Freeland can command his pitches well and avoid giving up the long ball, he has a chance to stymie the Giants' offense.
