Los Angeles Angels Insights

• Los Angeles Angels – Moneyline (+170)
  The Los Angeles Angels infield defense grades out as the 3rd-weakest out of every team in action today.
  Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
• Logan O’Hoppe – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-130/+100)
  Based on Statcast data, the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s version of Expected Batting Average (.253) may lead us to conclude that Logan O’Hoppe has had some very poor luck since the start of last season with his .210 actual batting average.
  Explain: xBA uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s batting average ability more accurately than actual batting average can.
• Los Angeles Angels – 2H Moneyline
  According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Los Angeles Angels’ bullpen projects as the 7th-worst out of all the teams in baseball.
  Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a weak bullpen sneakily creates an easier matchup for the opposing offense and boosts a game’s runs.

Los Angeles Dodgers Insights

• Roki Sasaki – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-130/+100)
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects that Roki Sasaki will average a total of 5.8 strikeouts in today’s matchup.
  Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors like ballpark, weather, umpire, and more.
• Will Smith – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-165/+130)
  Will Smith has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this season (82% of the time), but he is projected to hit 6th in the lineup in this matchup.
  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.
• Will Smith – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-165/+130)
  Will Smith hits a high percentage of his flyballs to center field (40.1% — 98th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he’ll be hitting towards baseball’s 9th-shallowest CF fences today.
  Explain: This player’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.
