Miami Marlins Insights

• Sandy Alcantara – Over/Under 17.5 Pitching Outs (-155/+120)
  Compared to the average pitcher, Sandy Alcantara has been given a longer leash than the average pitcher this year, tallying an additional 7.6 adjusted pitches each start.
  Explain: Pitchers with a longer leash are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
• Christopher Morel – Over/Under Total Bases
  Christopher Morel has struggled with his Barrel%; his 15.3% rate last year has dropped off to 2.8% this year.
  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.
• Kyle Stowers – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-185)
  As it relates to his overall offensive talent, Kyle Stowers ranks in the 84th percentile according to the leading projections (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.

Washington Nationals Insights

• Cade Cavalli – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+105/-135)
  With a 1.37 gap between Cade Cavalli’s 10.26 K/9 and his 8.88 estimated true talent K/9 (via the leading projection system, THE BAT), it’s safe to say he’s been one of the most fortunate pitchers in the game this year as it relates to strikeouts and figures to see negative regression the rest of the season.
  Explain: Pitchers that are overperforming should be expected to pitch worse going forward, which can create value on K prop Unders if the lines are too heavily weighing the lucky, to-date overperformance.
• James Wood – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+100/-130)
  James Wood has seen a sizeable gain in his exit velocity this year; just compare his 96.5-mph average to last year’s 94.3-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.
• The underlying talent of the Washington Nationals projected batting order today (.310 projected wOBA via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) figures to be a good deal weaker than their .323 wOBA this year.
  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.
