Eric Lindquist recommended watching Isaac Paredes closely against the Mets, noting the favorable hitting environment provided by Houston's Crawford boxes in left field, which suit a pull hitter with strong left-field pull tendencies like Paredes. Lindquist expects Clay Holmes of the Mets, a bullpen arm stretched into a starter last year, to experience regression after a strong season (282 xwOBA, 332 expected slugging allowed). With Paredes' propensity for pulling the ball, Lindquist believes there's excellent value betting on him to capitalize and potentially hit a home run, highlighting the improved hitting scenario compared to his previous stint with the Cubs last season.
