When we take NRFI wagers, it’s best to lean on Cy Young talent. The best pitcher on the mound on Tuesday is Logan Webb. Webb and the Giants will open their series against the Red Sox, and the pitcher has been an NRFI machine in 2024.
We’re also looking at an NRFI bet four hours south at Citi Field in Queens, NY. The New York Mets will host the Chicago Cubs for game two of their series. The YRFI hit in game one, but only four runs were scored, so neither offense has been fantastic.

The Chicago Cubs and New York Mets will battle in game two of a four-game series on Tuesday night. The first game featured limited offense and great pitching, as New York won 3-1.
Even though the YRFI hit in this game, four runs give us confidence that we will see a limited output again. The NRFI has a much better chance of hitting in a low-scoring game. We have a lot of confidence in both pitchers on the mound for various reasons.
Javier Assad will pitch for the Cubs, and he is the best pitcher of the two in this contest. He is 2-0 with a 2.00 ERA and a 1.00 WHIP. He has struck out 26 batters in 27 innings and allowed just two homers over this span.
Sean Manaea, who will pitch for New York, has also been excellent at limiting homers. He has surrendered one in 24.1 innings and wants to continue this streak on Tuesday.
Manaea is 1-1 with a 3.33 ERA and a 1.44 WHIP. He has a walking issue, which is clear from his 14 free passes in 24.1 innings. Yet, he has fanned 27 batters this season, which helps him get out of jams.
Neither offense has been hot in the past week. These two teams define inconsistency, and when two strong pitchers throw, it’s best to lean on the under of 0.5 runs in the first inning.
The weather report also shows the wind blowing in at Citi Field, which is another factor pushing us toward the NRFI at a very fair price of -128 on FanDuel Sportsbook.

Logan Webb has been one of the pitchers in the National League West and throughout baseball this season. Webb has a strong arm and can fool batters with an elite arsenal of breaking pitches.
Webb isn’t as dominant on the road as he is at home, but he has pitched consistently well all season. Webb is a matchup nightmare for the Red Sox because he keeps the ball down in the zone.
Boston relies on pitches that are up so they can elevate them out of the yard. The quickest way to destroy an NRFI is with home run, and we don’t have this fear with Webb on the mound. He is 3-1 with a 2.33 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP.
The pitcher has allowed just one homer in 38.2 innings, which was against the Dodgers on April 2, when he was rocked. Since this game, he has thrown at least seven innings in his past four starts with no homers allowed.
We also have a lot of faith in Cooper Criswell, who will pitch for Boston. Thanks to his 2.38 ERA and 1.15 WHIP, he should tame the Giants in the first inning.
