- № 03Eric Haase is hitting .231 against right-handers on the year, giving him a workable floor for clearing a single base.
- № 04If the game reaches Pete Fairbanks, his 6.43 ERA across 21.0 relief innings means late at-bats stay live.

San Francisco Giants vs Miami Marlins
§ 01The analysis
This one comes down to backing a hitter in his preferred split against a pitcher whose surface numbers look better than the underlying work. Eric Haase carries a 0.83 OPS in 43 plate appearances versus right-handers and is hitting .231 against them, which is the side of the platoon he sees today. Max Meyer's 2.75 ERA across 85.0 innings is the headline, but his xERA of 3.80 says the contact against him has been louder than the runs allowed. The recent form is the obvious counter — Eric Haase has 4 hits in 25 at-bats over his last 10 games and his season line sits at .226 with a 0.79 OPS, so this is not a hitter in a hot stretch. Park context is mixed, with loanDepot park playing as a 0.84 home run factor for righties but a 1.02 run environment overall. If the game flips to Pete Fairbanks late, his 6.43 ERA across 21.0 relief innings keeps another at-bat in play for clearing the number.
§ 02The call
Take Eric Haase over 0.5 Total Bases at -110. The pick rides on a usable platoon profile against a starter whose 3.80 xERA and 3.06 FIP say his 2.75 ERA has been flattered by results. One base is a low bar for a hitter with a 0.83 OPS versus righties, and a potential late look at Pete Fairbanks and his 6.43 bullpen ERA adds another path to cash. The cold 10-game stretch is real and keeps this from being a heavy play, but the matchup and price still point to the over.
