Tampa Bay Rays

Cleveland Guardians Insights

• Tanner Bibee – Over/Under 17.5 Pitching Outs (-135/+105)
  Tanner Bibee has recorded 17 outs per game per started this year, ranking in the 78th percentile.
  Explain: A pitcher who averages more outs per start than his Outs prop may be a good bet to go over, and visa-versa for the under.
• Steven Kwan – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+140/-185)
  Steven Kwan’s average exit velocity has fallen off this year; his 86.3-mph EV last season has dropped off to 83.1-mph.
  Explain: Hitting the ball hard increases the chances of either a home run or the ball landing in fair territory for a hit before a fielder can get to it.
• Cleveland Guardians – 2H Moneyline
  The Cleveland Guardians bullpen profiles as the best in the game, via the leading projection system (THE BAT).
  Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a strong bullpen sneakily creates a tougher matchup for the opposing offense and suppresses a game’s runs.

Tampa Bay Rays Insights

• Nick Martinez – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (+100/-130)
  Nick Martinez’s four-seamer usage has decreased by 9.5% from last season to this one (21% to 11.5%) .
  Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball lessoften will likely be more effective than he used to be.
• Chandler Simpson – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-235/+180)
  Chandler Simpson is an extreme groundball hitter and matches up with the strong infield defense of Cleveland (#3-best of the day).
  Explain: This player’s skill set matches up poorly with the opposing team’s defensive strength, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
• Yandy Diaz – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115/-150)
  Yandy Diaz has a 100th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (43.3%) and has the good fortune of hitting them in the direction of the game’s 5th-shallowest RF fences in today’s game.
  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.
