Washington Nationals Insights

• Washington Nationals – 2H Moneyline
  The Washington Nationals bullpen ranks as the 4th-worst in the league, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT).
  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.

Boston Red Sox Insights

• Connelly Early – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-130/+100)
  The Washington Nationals have 6 hitters in the projected batting order that will have the handedness advantage over Connelly Early in today’s game.
  Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform worse against left-handed hitters (and visa-versa). If several hitters hold this advantage against the pitcher, it can have a huge impact on whether he will perform well or struggle on any given day.
• Wilyer Abreu – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-105/-125)
  Wilyer Abreu is an extreme flyball hitter and faces the strong outfield defense of Washington (#2-best of all teams 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.
• Carlos Narvaez – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-155/+120)
  Carlos Narvaez has a 95th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (37.1%) and has the good fortune of hitting them in the direction of the game’s 3rd-shallowest RF 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.
