Washington Nationals Insights
- Zack Littell – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (+130/-165)Recording 17.4 outs per start since the start of last season on average, Zack Littell places him the 89th percentile.Explain: A pitcher who averages more outs per start than his Outs prop may be a good bet to go over, and visa-versa for the under.
- Daylen Lile – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+150/-195)Daylen Lile’s exit velocity on flyballs has decreased this season; his 91.8-mph mark last season has decreased to 89.3-mph.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.
- Washington Nationals – 2H MoneylineAccording to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Washington Nationals’ bullpen grades out as the worst out of all the teams in the league.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.
Milwaukee Brewers Insights
- Brandon Woodruff – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-145/+115)Brandon Woodruff has used his change-up 5.4% more often this year (23%) than he did last year (17.6%).Explain: Because change-ups are one of the most effective pitches to use, a pitcher who alters his pitch mix to use more of them will often see more success as a result.
- Christian Yelich – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125/-160)Christian Yelich has been very fortunate when it comes to his home runs since the start of last season; his 25.8 HR per 600 plate appearances mark is a fair amount higher than his 18.0 Expected HR/600, based on the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s interpretation of Statcast data.Explain: xHR uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s home run ability more accurately than actual home runs can.
- William Contreras – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+110/-140)William Contreras hits many of his flyballs to center field (39.3% — 95th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he’ll be hitting towards the league’s 8th-shallowest CF fences in today’s game.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.
