Chicago White Sox Insights

  • Chicago White Sox – Moneyline (-110)
    Among all the teams in action today, the 2nd-weakest outfield defense is that of the Chicago White Sox.
    Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
  • The 8.6% Barrel% of the Chicago White Sox ranks them as the #5 squad in baseball this year by this standard.
    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.

St. Louis Cardinals Insights

  • Jose Fermin – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-215/+165)
    Jose Fermin is projected to bat 1st in the batting order in this matchup, which would be an upgrade from his 79% rate of hitting in the bottom-half of the lineup this year.
    Explain: The higher in the order a player bats, the more plate appearances he will get and the more opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits higher in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting lower.
  • Jordan Walker – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+110/-145)
    Jordan Walker hits many of his flyballs to center field (40.3% — 98th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he’ll be hitting towards MLB’s 7th-shallowest CF fences in today’s matchup.
    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.
