San Francisco Giants Insights

  • Anthony Molina – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-110/-120)
    Ranking in the 17th percentile, Anthony Molina has put up a 16.2% Strikeout% since the start of last season.
    Explain: One of the best indicators of future strikeouts is past strikeouts.
  • San Francisco’s 91.7-mph exit velocity on flyballs makes them the #22 offense in the majors 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.

New York Mets Insights

  • Zach Thornton – Over/Under 16.5 Pitching Outs (-125/-105)
    Zachary Thornton has been given a shorter leash than the average pitcher this year, throwing 7.9 fewer adjusted pitches-per-game than the average starting pitcher.
    Explain: Pitchers with a shorter leash are more likely to get pulled earlier in games and record fewer outs.
  • A.J. Ewing – Over/Under 0.5 Runs (+145/-185)
    A.J. Ewing is penciled in 7th in the lineup today, which would be a downgrade from his 62% rate of hitting in the top-half of the lineup 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.
  • Juan Soto – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+110/-140)
    Juan Soto hits many of his flyballs to center field (39.7% — 96th percentile) and will have a big advantage facing the league’s shallowest CF fences in today’s game.
    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.
