Eric Lindquist circled Max Muncy as Tuesday’s top long-ball ticket at Coors. Lindquist noted that Muncy’s strike-out rate has dropped to 22.3 % after sitting north of 30 % in April, a signal he is finally making more contact. He will face right-hander German Marquez, whose Statcast page is a mess – .295 xBA, 14.7 % K-rate and a 13-degree average launch angle that invites pulled fly balls. With Los Angeles now slotting Muncy fourth versus righties and forecasted mid-80s temps in Denver boosting carry, Lindquist is betting one well-barreled swing clears the short right-field fence. He is comfortable firing on any home-run number longer than +270 and called it a “lock-and-load” addition to his daily Lindy’s Long Balls card.

Spector laid ‑120 on Max Muncy Under 0.5 total bases, grading it four stars. Muncy opened the season homer-less through 89 ABs and has been held without an extra-base hit in 10 of his last 11 contests, going hit-less outright in eight of those. The matchup is no get-right spot: in 10 career at-bats versus Braves starter Bryce Elder he owns a meek .200/.200/.500 line with two strikeouts. Given Muncy’s current power outage and Elder’s prior success, Spector expects another zero in the total-bases column.
