Los Angeles Dodgers Insights

• Emmet Sheehan – Over/Under 16.5 Pitching Outs (-115/-115)
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) expects Emmet Sheehan to be limited in this matchup, projecting a maximum of 80 pitches.
  Explain: A pitcher who is on a pitch count is likely to be pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
• Will Smith – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-125/-105)
  In the last week, Will Smith’s Barrel% has experienced a negative regression, plummeting from his seasonal rate of 10.9% down to 0%.
  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.
• Shohei Ohtani – Over/Under 2.5 Total Bases (+105/-135)
  Shohei Ohtani projects as the 3rd-best batter in the majors, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X).
  Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors and regularly tests among the most accurate systems available.

Colorado Rockies Insights

• Ryan Feltner – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-125/-105)
  With 6 batters who bat from the opposite side in the opposing team’s projected batting order, Ryan Feltner will have a tough matchup while lacking the platoon advantage in most plate appearances in this game.
  Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform worse against left-handed hitters (and visa-versa). If several hitters hold this advantage against the pitcher, it can have a huge impact on whether he will perform well or struggle on any given day.
• Hunter Goodman – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120/-155)
  Hunter Goodman has been hot lately, raising his seasonal exit velocity of 92.6-mph to 101.1-mph over the last 7 days.
  Explain: Hitting the ball hard increases the chances of either a home run or the ball landing in fair territory for a hit before a fielder can get to it.
• Compared to their .318 overall projected rate, the .301 the leading projection system (THE BAT X) wOBA of the Colorado Rockies projected offense today suggests this version of the lineup significantly missing some of their usual firepower.
  Explain: Betting lines are often based on seasonal team quality. If today’s lineup is watered down, however, there may be value if markets aren’t accounting for the lower quality of this offense.
