Miami Marlins

Tampa Bay Rays Insights

• Tampa Bay Rays – Moneyline (-140)
  Out of all the teams in action today, the weakest infield defense belongs to the Tampa Bay Rays.
  Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
• Jonathan Aranda – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120/-155)
  Jonathan Aranda has been hot of late, raising his seasonal exit velocity of 91.1-mph to 98.3-mph in the past two weeks.
  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.
• Yandy Diaz – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115/-150)
  Yandy Diaz has a 100th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (43.2%) and will have to hit them out towards the game’s 4th-deepest RF fences in today’s matchup.
  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.

Miami Marlins Insights

• Ryan Gusto – Over/Under Pitching Outs
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Ryan Gusto to throw 78 pitches in today’s game (2nd-least on the slate), considering both his underlying tendencies and the matchup.
  Explain: Pitchers who throw relatively few pitches are more likely to get pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
• Xavier Edwards – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-185)
  Extreme flyball batters like Xavier Edwards usually hit worse against extreme flyball pitchers like Drew Rasmussen.
  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.
• The Miami Marlins have 4 bats in their projected offense today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (according to the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Joe Mack, Owen Caissie, Kyle Stowers, Heriberto Hernandez).
  Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
