Michael Lorenzen – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-165/+125)
Michael Lorenzen’s higher usage rate of his secondary pitches this season (64.7% vs. 59.7% last season) should work in his favor considering they are typically much more effective than fastballs.
Explain: A pitcher who limits has fastball usage will instead heavily use change-ups, curveballs, sliders, etc. These are far more effective pitches at preventing runs and generating strikeouts.
Jake McCarthy – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-150/+115)
Jake McCarthy is an extreme groundball hitter and squares off against the strong infield defense of Chicago (#1-best of all teams on the slate today).
Explain: This player’s skill set matches up poorly with the opposing team’s defensive strength, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
Hunter Goodman – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+110/-140)
Hunter Goodman pulls many of his flyballs (39.8% — 97th percentile) and will have a big advantage hitting them towards MLB’s 7th-shallowest LF 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.

Shota Imanaga – Over/Under 6.5 Strikeouts (+130/-165)
Shota Imanaga’s 91.2-mph velocity on his fastball this year is a substantial 1-mph rise from last year’s 90.2-mph mark.
Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs, so a pitcher who improves his velocity will likely see improved results.
Nico Hoerner – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-240/+180)
Nico Hoerner has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this year (88% of the time), but he is projected to bat 6th on the lineup card in this game.
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.
Chicago Cubs – Moneyline (-220)
The Chicago Cubs projected offense projects as the 2nd-strongest of all teams today in terms of overall batting skill.
Explain: A pitcher who faces a strong opposing offense will be more likely to underperform his usual performance, particularly in terms of hits and runs, in that game.
