New York Mets Insights

• MJ Melendez – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+150/-195)
  MJ Melendez has strong power (84th percentile) if he makes contact, but that’s usually a big “IF” (28.1% K%). Today, however, opposing pitcher Miles Mikolas struggles to strike batters out (18th percentile K%) — great news for Melendez.
  Explain: If he is less likely to strikeout, he’ll be more likely to make contact, which is often hard, home-run contact.
