Los Angeles Dodgers

Seattle Mariners Insights

• Luis Castillo – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (-125/-105)
  Luis Castillo has been granted a longer leash than the average pitcher this year, tallying 5.8 more adjusted pitches-per-start than the average hurler.
  Explain: Pitchers with a longer leash are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
• J.P. Crawford – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-155/+120)
  J.P. Crawford has been cold in recent games, with his seasonal exit velocity of 88-mph dropping to 81.3-mph over the past 14 days.
  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.
• Seattle’s 92.5-mph exit velocity on flyballs makes them the #9 squad in Major League Baseball this year by this standard.
  Explain: Most home runs are flyballs, and the harder those flyballs are hit, the more often they turn into home runs. This is a strong indicator of power.

Los Angeles Dodgers Insights

• Justin Wrobleski – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+100/-130)
  It may come as a surprise, but fastballs are typically a pitcher’s least effective pitch. Justin Wrobleski has gone to his fastball a lot this year, though: 57.2% of the time, checking in at the 100th percentile.
  Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so pitchers who rely too heavily on them tend to be less effective than they otherwise would be.
• Mookie Betts – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+130/-170)
  Mookie Betts hits many of his flyballs to center field (39.9% — 98th percentile) and is fortunate to face baseball’s 9th-shallowest CF 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.
