Los Angeles Dodgers Insights

• Justin Wrobleski – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-150/+115)
  It may come as a surprise, but fastballs are typically a pitcher’s least effective pitch. Justin Wrobleski has used his fastball a lot this year, though: 57.3% of the time, ranking in the 100th percentile.
  Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so pitchers who rely too heavily on them tend to be less effective than they otherwise would be.
• Teoscar Hernandez – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-160/+125)
  Teoscar Hernandez is penciled in 8th on the lineup card today, which would be a downgrade from his 60% rate of hitting in the top-half of the lineup this season.
  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.
• Los Angeles Dodgers – 2H Moneyline
  The Los Angeles Dodgers bullpen ranks as the 6th-best in baseball, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT).
  Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a strong bullpen sneakily creates a tougher matchup for the opposing offense and suppresses a game’s runs.

Los Angeles Angels Insights

• Los Angeles Angels – Moneyline (+115)
  Among every team today, the 3rd-worst infield defense belongs to the Los Angeles Angels.
  Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
• Jo Adell – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120/-150)
  Jo Adell has seen a notable gain in his exit velocity lately; just compare his 100-mph average in the past week to his seasonal 91.2-mph average.
  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.
• Zach Neto – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-185)
  Zach Neto pulls a lot of his flyballs (38.5% — 95th percentile) and has the misfortune of hitting them towards the league’s 11th-deepest LF fences today.
  Explain: This player’s skill set does not match up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
