Michael Savio expressed significant skepticism regarding Ryan Pepiot of the Tampa Bay Rays ahead of the matchup against the Boston Red Sox, despite Pepiot's acceptable 3.38 ERA this season. Savio noted Pepiot's high WHIP of 1.50, pointing out that he has benefited from matchups against very weak offenses (Angels, Pirates, Rockies), which may have masked his actual vulnerability. Additionally, Savio observed signs of improvement from Boston starter Walker Buehler, who rebounded impressively against a strong Toronto lineup after early-season difficulties. Given Boston's offensive potential, Savio recommended betting on the Red Sox moneyline despite their recent struggles, driven by the likelihood of exploiting Pepiot's weaknesses and the probable continued rebound from Buehler.

Jim Sannes recommends betting the under on Ryan Pepiot's 6.5 strikeout total, noting multiple reasons behind the call. Pepiot's projection sits around just 5.54 strikeouts, historically translating to a strong 77.4% probability of unders when considering similar projections. Pepiot's pitch count also works against high strikeout totals, with his maximum pitch count this season at 91 and limited outings eclipsing mid-90's in the past year. Additionally, Pepiot is transitioning from matchups against poor offenses to facing the Boston Red Sox, whose active roster rates 2nd in wRC+ against right-handed pitchers since the start of last season, indicating a much stiffer challenge. These factors combined lead Sannes confidently toward the under at -144 despite the juice.

Kenny G is cautious about Ryan Pepiot despite a solid 3.38 ERA so far. Pepiot has faced weaker lineups with starts against Rockies, Pirates, and Angels. Kenny sees Pepiot as a pitcher likely due for regression when facing tougher competition. Considering the Red Sox rank sixth in runs scored (inflated by two outlier games), Pepiot's performance tonight will test how genuine his strong initial outings have been. Though he slightly favors Tampa Bay at home due to Boston's inconsistencies, Kenny highlights Pepiot as a distinct regression candidate moving forward.

ESPN Fantasy recommended Ryan Pepiot as the top streaming pitching option for Wednesday's matchup against the Los Angeles Angels. Pepiot has demonstrated effectiveness with 11 strikeouts in his first 11 innings thus far, although he's also walked four and surrendered 11 hits due to a high and potentially unsustainable .313 BABIP. The Angels' offense features a slightly below-average weighted on-base average (wOBA) alongside a strikeout rate slightly above league average, creating a favorable situation for Pepiot to build upon his early-season success.

ESPN Fantasy identified Ryan Pepiot as the top streaming option for Wednesday's fantasy baseball lineup. Pepiot has accumulated 11 strikeouts over his first 11 innings this season. His early performance has been solid despite allowing 11 hits, largely due to an inflated .313 BABIP, and maintaining his career average with four walks issued. He draws an attractive matchup against the Angels, whose offense has a slightly below-average wOBA and an above-average strikeout rate. With these favorable conditions at home, Pepiot is expected to continue his strong start to the season and makes for an excellent streaming or DFS option.

JD Bets recommends taking the under on Ryan Pepiot's 6.5 strikeout total against Pittsburgh. Despite Pepiot achieving unusually high strikeouts against Colorado, JD emphasizes that Colorado was a bottom-five team in strikeouts, inflating Pepiot's numbers deceptively. Pepiot's historical strikeout rate from the previous season was low, as he hit the 6.5 strikeout mark in only nine of his 26 appearances. Given Pittsburgh's modest strikeout tendencies and Pepiot's overall low strikeout consistency, JD confidently advises betting the under on Pepiot's strikeout prop.

Joe Osborne recommended betting on Ryan Pepiot to go over 17.5 total outs recorded prop against the Pirates. Pepiot impressed in his season debut, efficiently registering 18 outs with only 85 pitches, 8 strikeouts, and just one earned run allowed. Facing a struggling Pirates lineup (27th in OPS, .194 batting average against right-handed pitching), Pepiot is positioned well for another extended and dominant outing today in what Osborne believes could be Pepiot's breakout season.

Brian Howard strongly advises betting on Ryan Pepiot to surpass 6.5 strikeouts against the Rockies. He noted how Colorado ranked near the top of the league in strikeouts last year, averaging nearly 10 per game (around 9.87), and described Pepiot as having good pitching stuff. He sees Pepiot as positioned for success filling in for Shane McClanahan and facing a Rockies lineup that struggles to consistently make contact and generate offense.
