Pittsburgh Pirates Insights

• Paul Skenes – Over/Under 7.5 Strikeouts (+120/-155)
  With 6 batters who bat from the other side in the opposing team’s projected offense, Paul Skenes encounters a tough challenge while lacking the platoon advantage in most plate appearances today.
  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.
• Henry Davis – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-120/-110)
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) estimates Henry Davis’s true offensive ability to be a .306, implying that he has suffered from bad luck this year given the .057 difference between that mark and his actual .249 wOBA.
  Explain: Players that are underperforming should be expected to play worse going forward, which can create value on prop Overs if the lines are too heavily weighing the unlucky, to-date underperformance.
• Henry Davis – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-120/-110)
  Henry Davis pulls a lot of his flyballs (38.4% — 95th percentile) and will have a big advantage hitting them towards MLB’s 10th-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.

Philadelphia Phillies Insights

• Zack Wheeler – Over/Under 7.5 Strikeouts (+110/-140)
  Among all starters, Zack Wheeler’s fastball spin rate of 2438 rpm grades out in the 82nd percentile this year.
  Explain: Spin rate is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
• Kyle Schwarber – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+110/-145)
  Kyle Schwarber has struggled with his Barrel% in recent games; his 20.5% seasonal rate has fallen off to 0% over the past 7 days.
  Explain: Barrel% measures how often a player hits the ball at the optimal exit velocity and launch angle and is a terrific measure of underlying power.
• The Philadelphia Phillies have been the 3rd-unluckiest offense in the majors this year, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), and are likely to perform better in the future
  Explain: When teams underperform their projected talent level, markets may undervalue them even while they are likely to perform better in the near future.
