San Francisco Giants Insights
- San Francisco Giants – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-135)Logan Webb is an extreme groundball pitcher (54.2% GB% via the leading projection system, THE BAT), which should make him somewhat immune to the dangers of pitching in Oriole Park at Camden Yards — the #4 HR venue among all stadiums — in this game.Explain: This pitcher’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-expected performance.
- Luis Arraez – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115/-150)Luis Arraez has seen a notable improvement in his exit velocity on flyballs this season; just compare his 88-mph average to last season’s 86-mph average.Explain: Most home runs are flyballs, and the harder those flyballs are hit, the more often they turn into home runs. This is a strong indicator of power.
- San Francisco Giants – 2H MoneylineAccording to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the San Francisco Giants’ bullpen projects as the 6th-worst out of all the teams in Major League Baseball.Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a weak bullpen sneakily creates an easier matchup for the opposing offense and boosts a game’s runs.
Baltimore Orioles Insights
- Chris Bassitt – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-125/-105)Given the 0.4 deviation between Chris Bassitt’s 8.61 K/9 and his 8.21 estimated true talent K/9 (via the leading projection system, THE BAT), it’s safe to say he’s been one of the most fortunate pitchers in the majors since the start of last season in terms of strikeouts and should see negative regression in future games.Explain: Pitchers that are overperforming should be expected to pitch worse going forward, which can create value on K prop Unders if the lines are too heavily weighing the lucky, to-date overperformance.
- Taylor Ward – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-180/+140)Bats such as Taylor Ward with extreme flyball tendencies are usually more effective when facing pitchers like Logan Webb who skew towards the groundball end of the spectrum.Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create boosted performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
- Ryan Mountcastle – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+165/-220)Ryan Mountcastle has a 96th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (38%) and has the good fortune of hitting them in the direction of the game’s shallowest RF fences today.Explain: This player’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.
