Toronto Blue Jays Insights
- Dylan Cease – Over/Under 16.5 Pitching Outs (-105/-125)Dylan Cease has been given more leash than the average pitcher since the start of last season, throwing 4.9 more adjusted pitches-per-game than the average pitcher.Explain: Pitchers with a longer leash are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
- Daulton Varsho – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-175)Typically, batters like Daulton Varsho who hit a lot of flyballs generally hit worse when facing pitchers who also induce a lot of flyballs such as Chad Patrick.Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create diminished performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
- Via the leading projection system (THE BAT X), the team with the least strikeout-heavy lineup today is the Toronto Blue Jays with a 19.5% underlying K%.Explain: THE BAT X analyzes each player in today’s specific lineup to figure out which teams have the least inherent strikeout potential for the opposing pitcher.
Milwaukee Brewers Insights
- Chad Patrick – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+125/-160)Chad Patrick’s higher usage rate of his fastball this season (52.5 vs. 45.3% last year) is not ideal since they are typically much less effective than breaking or off-speed pitches.Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball more often will likely be less effective than he used to be.
- Garrett Mitchell – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-115/-115)Garrett Mitchell has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this year (73% of the time), but he is projected to hit 7th in the lineup in this game.Explain: The lower in the order a player bats, the fewer plate appearances he will get and the fewer opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits lower in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting higher.
- The 7% Barrel% of the Milwaukee Brewers makes them the #30 squad in the league since the start of last season by this standard.Explain: Barrel% measures how often a player hits the ball at the optimal exit velocity and launch angle and is a terrific measure of underlying power.
