ANALYSIS: Cuban prospect Raisel Iglesias has had flashes of both good and bad in his debut season with the Cincinnati Reds. Iglesias has been brilliant of late. In three August starts, Iglesias has a 2.89 ERA and 0.75 WHIP. He is making both of his starts this week at home, which is good news considering that he pitches much better at home on the season with a 3.82 ERA and 1.24 WHIP in Cincinnati. Of course, the home park is of some concern as it’s one of the most power friendly in baseball.
In total, Iglesias has good peripherals with a 3.53 FIP, 2.6 BB/9, and 9.3 K/9. His main struggle has been allowing home runs with a 0.9 HR/9. However, this is good news considering his opposition this week. Iglesias will first face off against the Royals who rank 26th in the league with 91 HR on the season and will then make a start against the Diamondbacks who rank 18th in the league with 103 HR. He’s a high ceiling pick up this week.
