Arizona Diamondbacks

Texas Rangers Insights

• Kumar Rocker – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-130/+100)
  Kumar Rocker has utilized his slider 22.2% more often this year (38%) than he did last season (15.8%).
  Explain: Because sliders are one of the most effective pitches to use, a pitcher who alters his pitch mix to use more of them will often see more success as a result.
• Corey Seager – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+110/-140)
  Corey Seager has been unlucky this year, putting up a .320 wOBA despite the leading projection system (THE BAT X) estimating his true talent level to be .362 — a .042 discrepancy.
  Explain: Players that are underperforming should be expected to play worse going forward, which can create value on prop Overs if the lines are too heavily weighing the unlucky, to-date underperformance.
• Josh Jung – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120/-155)
  Josh Jung hits a lot of his flyballs to center field (39.9% — 97th percentile) and will have to hit them out towards baseball’s 3rd-deepest CF fences in today’s matchup.
  Explain: This player’s skill set does not match up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.

Arizona Diamondbacks Insights

• Brandon Pfaadt – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+115/-145)
  Brandon Pfaadt’s 2496-rpm fastball spin rate this year is in the 92nd percentile among all starters.
  Explain: Spin rate is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
• Pavin Smith – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-125/-105)
  Pavin Smith has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this season (59% of the time), but he is penciled in 8th in the lineup in today’s game.
  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.
• The Arizona Diamondbacks have been the 2nd-unluckiest offense in the game this year, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), and are likely to hit better in the future
  Explain: When teams underperform their projected talent level, markets may undervalue them even while they are likely to perform better in the near future.
