What It Means:

Bradley will start Thursday's series finale against the New York Mets after spending more than three weeks in the minors. Across three starts in the bigs, Bradley impressed with a 38.3% strikeout rate, 3.3% walk rate, 11.5% swinging-strike rate, and 28.7% called plus swinging-strike rate. The rookie right-hander recorded six-plus strikeouts in all three of those starts. The Rays optioned right-hander Zack Burdi to Durham in a corresponding roster move.

numberFire's models project Bradley ($10,200) for 25.0 FanDuel points on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets' implied total is 4.25 and the game total is 8.5. The Mets have a 24.9% strikeout rate at home versus right-handed pitchers this season, which is sixth-worst in the league.
