Philadelphia Phillies vs New York Mets: NRFI (-110)

For our first NRFI selection on Monday, I’ll be backing a scoreless opening frame between the Phillies and Mets. Any time Max Scherzer gets the ball, I’ll naturally lean toward the NRFI, especially at this price. Scherzer hasn’t allowed a first-inning run in 5 of his last 6 outings, and I don’t see that stopping here. New York has struggled on offense at numerous points throughout the season and the vast majority of the Mets lineup has zero experience against Phillies starter Taijuan Walker. Walker hasn’t been great this season (5.57 ERA), but his xERA of 4.51 and solid road stats suggest that positive regression can be expected. I’m expecting Walker to have success against his former teammates in the early going, before potentially running into trouble down the road.

Cleveland Guardians vs Minnesota Twins: NRFI (-120)

Unlike the other game in this column, this one doesn’t have a high-profile starting pitching matchup on paper. Therefore, I think we’re getting a bit of value on the NRFI at this price. Pablo Lopez isn’t a household name, but he should be able to start fast against a Guardians lineup that is severely lacking in almost every meaningful statistic (28th in OBP, 30th in SLG and 30th in OPS). On the other side, Tanner Bibee has been surprisingly strong for Cleveland this season. Bibee has pitched to a 2.85 ERA and his nearly identical xERA shows that this strong start is no fluke. Given that the Twins don’t have experience hitting against Bibee, I’ll back the right-hander to stay hot in the opening frame.

A black hole is observed by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope twisting a star into a “donut.”

Image
Astronomers have watched as a black hole tears a star into a “ donut ” and then eats it. The process is one of the most violent and extreme in the universe: when a star gets too close to a black hole, it tears it up, eating the star but also spewing radiation out. It is known as a “tidal disruption event”. Scientists have watched as that happens, using the Hubble Space Telescope to record the final moments of the star as it was eaten up. Researchers hope to use the observations and other like it to better understand what happens when a star falls into the abyss and is torn apart in such a way. Nasa’s Hubble Space Telescope is unable to see the process as it happens, since the new example is almost 300 million light years away. But they can see the light that is thrown out when it does happen, and examine that light for the clues to what happens to the star. Researchers have seen many such examples of tidal disruption events around black holes. About 100 of them have been do

Mir “scared” of repeating Lorenzo’s Honda MotoGP failure

Image
The 2020 world champion switched to the factory Honda squad for this season after Suzuki quit the series at the end of last year. Mir is the fifth different rider in six years to partner Marc Marquez at Honda, following Dani Pedrosa in 2018, Lorenzo in 2019, Alex Marquez in 2020 and Espargaro in 2021/2022. Pedrosa’s final year was his first winless one in MotoGP , while Lorenzo’s MotoGP career was effectively ended by the woes he suffered at Honda. Alex Marquez has since departed to Gresini Ducati having struggled at LCR Honda over the last two years. Mir’s season has been a shocker so far having scored just five points from the first five rounds in a generally tough year for Honda – albeit one in which Alex Rins did win the Americas GP for LCR. Following a double crash at the French GP, Mir admits he is “scared” of suffering the same fate as Lorenzo and Espargaro at Honda given the difficulties he currently faces. “For sure I’m scared , for sure, because I want to win,” h
