Will update with trends once they're released.

Nathan Eovaldi has allowed 16 runs and 26 hits in his last 23.1 innings while Tyler Glasnow has allowed 18 runs and 29 hits in his last 35.1 innings. Eovaldi has had issues finding his form this season and he's allowing a .287 batting average to go along with a .326 on base percentage. Glasnow is going to turn things around eventually, and it starts with limiting his walks, as he's allowing a more than respectable .203 batting average on the season. I want little parts of Eovaldi until he gets back on track.

Give me the Tampa Bay Rays and whatever the line is once its released.
