    Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors and regularly tests among the most accurate systems available.
  • Shohei Ohtani – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-225/+170)

  • Mookie Betts – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-175)
    Mookie Betts hits a high percentage of his flyballs to center field (39.7% — 96th percentile) and sets up very well considering he’ll be hitting out towards baseball’s 5th-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.

Atlanta Braves Insights

  • Ozzie Albies – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-155/+120)
    Ozzie Albies is penciled in 6th in the batting order in today’s game, which would be a downgrade from his 88% 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.
  • Atlanta Braves – Moneyline (-115)
    The 3rd-best projected batting order of all teams today in terms of overall hitting skill belongs to the Atlanta Braves.
    Explain: A pitcher who faces a strong opposing offense will be more likely to underperform his usual performance, particularly in terms of hits and runs, in that game.
