Los Angeles Angels Insights

• Donovan Walton – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+165/-215)
  Because of J.T. Ginn’s large platoon split, Donovan Walton will have a gigantic advantage batting from the opposite side of the dish in today’s game.
  Explain: Right-handed hitters perform better against left-handed pitchers (and visa-versa). This can have a huge impact on whether a hitter will perform well or struggle on any given day.

Athletics Insights

• Lawrence Butler – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-155/+120)
  Lawrence Butler has a 97th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (38.3%) and has the misfortune of hitting them in the direction of the league’s 6th-deepest LF fences today.
  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.
