Colorado Rockies Insights

• Ryan Feltner – Over/Under 16.5 Pitching Outs (-115/-115)
  Ryan Feltner has recorded 14.5 outs per start this year, grading out in the 21st 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.
• Jake McCarthy – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-175)
  Jake McCarthy’s exit velocity on flyballs has decreased this year; his 90.9-mph mark last season has dropped to 88.9-mph.
  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.
• Colorado Rockies – 2H Moneyline
  The Colorado Rockies bullpen profiles as the 5th-worst in the game, according to 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.

Washington Nationals Insights

• Cade Cavalli – Over/Under 6.5 Strikeouts (+105/-135)
  The Colorado Rockies have 8 bats in the projected batting order that will hold the platoon advantage against Cade Cavalli in today’s game.
  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.
• Brady House – Over/Under Total Bases
  Brady House has a 90th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (35.5%) and will have a big advantage hitting them in the direction of baseball’s 10th-shallowest RF 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.
