Miami Marlins Insights

  • Sandy Alcantara – Over/Under 18.5 Pitching Outs (+100/-130)
    Compared to average, Sandy Alcantara has been granted an above-average leash this year, recording an extra 7.8 adjusted pitches each game.
    Explain: Pitchers with a longer leash are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
  • The Miami Marlins have 3 hitters in their projected batting order today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (according to the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Heriberto Hernandez, Griffin Conine, Kyle Stowers).
    Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts

New York Mets Insights

  • New York Mets – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (+105)
    The Miami Marlins have 6 hitters in the projected offense that will have the benefit of the platoon advantage against Robert Stock in today’s game, which is especially problematic given his huge platoon split.
    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.
  • Tyrone Taylor – Over/Under Total Bases
    Over the last 14 days, Tyrone Taylor has improved his Barrel% substantially, increasing it from his seasonal rate of 11.7% to 28.6%.
    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.
  • New York Mets – 2H Moneyline
    The New York Mets bullpen profiles as the 9th-worst in the league, via 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.
