Los Angeles Dodgers Insights

  • Justin Wrobleski – Over/Under Pitching Outs
    Justin Wrobleski has recorded 19.2 outs per GS this year, checking in at the 99th 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.
  • Miguel Rojas – Over/Under Hits
    Miguel Rojas is an extreme groundball batter and faces the strong infield defense of Chicago (#1-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.
  • Compared to their .349 overall projected rate, the .333 the leading projection system (THE BAT X) wOBA of the Los Angeles Dodgers projected offense in today’s game suggests this version of the lineup considerably missing some of their usual firepower.
    Explain: Betting lines are often based on seasonal team quality. If today’s lineup is watered down, however, there may be value if markets aren’t accounting for the lower quality of this offense.

Chicago Cubs Insights

  • Ian Happ – Over/Under Hits
    Ian Happ is projected to hit 7th in the lineup in today’s game, which would be a downgrade from his 90% rate of hitting in the top-half of the batting order this season.
    Explain: The lower in the order a player bats, the fewer plate appearances he will get and the fewer opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits lower in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting higher.
  • Chicago Cubs – 2H Moneyline
    According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Chicago Cubs’ bullpen projects as the 2nd-worst out of all the teams in the majors.
    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.
