Philadelphia Phillies Insights

• Cristopher Sanchez – Over/Under 6.5 Strikeouts (+110/-145)
  Considering that flyball hitters struggle against flyball pitchers, Cristopher Sanchez (55.5% GB% via the leading projection system, THE BAT) is well-situated today with 3 FB hitters in the opposing club’s projected batting order.
  Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create boosted performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
• Edmundo Sosa – Over/Under Total Bases
  Edmundo Sosa has been lucky in regards to his home runs since the start of last season; his 23.0 HR per 600 plate appearances mark is a good deal higher than his 11.2 Expected HR/600, based on the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s interpretation of Statcast data.
  Explain: xHR uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s home run ability more accurately than actual home runs can.
• It may be wise to expect improved performance for the Philadelphia Phillies offense the rest of the season, given that the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes they are the 3rd-unluckiest offense in baseball this year.
  Explain: When teams underperform their projected talent level, markets may undervalue them even while they are likely to perform better in the near future.

Washington Nationals Insights

• Cade Cavalli – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-140/+110)
  Cade Cavalli has had some very good luck with his strikeouts this year, posting a 9.54 K/9 despite the leading projection system (THE BAT) estimating his true talent level to be 8.83 — a 0.71 K/9 gap.
  Explain: Pitchers that are overperforming should be expected to pitch worse going forward, which can create value on K prop Unders if the lines are too heavily weighing the lucky, to-date overperformance.
• Jorbit Vivas – Over/Under Hits
  Jorbit Vivas is penciled in 5th on the lineup card today, which would be an upgrade from his 98% rate of hitting in the bottom-half of the lineup this year.
  Explain: The higher in the order a player bats, the more plate appearances he will get and the more opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits higher in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting lower.
• Washington Nationals – 2H Moneyline
  According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Washington Nationals’ bullpen profiles as the worst out of all the teams in the majors.
  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.
