Join Discord for earlier access: https://discord.gg/HjKxYKdSUy This is Skenes versus Wheeler, not a soft total built on bullpen guessing. Skenes owns a 1.98 ERA and 0.64 WHIP through 50 innings, while Wheeler sits at 2.55 and 0.93. PNC shows 10 mph wind right to left, and both teams have seen 5 of their last 10 finish at 7 or fewer.
