New York Mets Insights

• Nolan McLean – Over/Under 17.5 Pitching Outs (-135/+105)
  Recording 93.2 adjusted pitches per GS this year on average, Nolan McLean checks in at the 82nd percentile.
  Explain: Pitchers who average more pitches per game are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
• Luis Torrens – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-135/+105)
  Luis Torrens has had bad variance on his side thus far when it comes to his batting average since the start of last season; his .224 BA is deflated compared to his .302 Expected Batting Average, based on the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s interpretation of Statcast data.
  Explain: xBA uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s batting average ability more accurately than actual batting average can.
• The New York Mets have been the unluckiest offense in the game this year, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), and are likely to perform better going forward
  Explain: When teams underperform their projected talent level, markets may undervalue them even while they are likely to perform better in the near future.

San Diego Padres Insights

• Griffin Canning – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-115/-115)
  Griffin Canning has gone to his four-seamer 8.3% less often this season (26.4%) than he did last year (34.7%).
  Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball lessoften will likely be more effective than he used to be.
• Xander Bogaerts – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-195/+150)
  Xander Bogaerts is projected to bat 6th in the lineup in this game, which would be a downgrade from his 91% 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.
• San Diego Padres – 2H Moneyline
  The San Diego Padres bullpen profiles as the best in the majors, per 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.
