+195O/U: 9.5
(+100/-120)-230

Brandon Williamson – Over/Under 2.5 Strikeouts (-135/+105)
Brandon Williamson’s 92-mph fastball velocity this year ranks in the 24th percentile among all starters.
Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
Elly De La Cruz – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120/-155)
Elly De La Cruz has seen a significant improvement in his exit velocity this season; just compare his 94.3-mph average to last season’s 90.7-mph mark.
Explain: Hitting the ball hard increases the chances of either a home run or the ball landing in fair territory for a hit before a fielder can get to it.
Dane Myers – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-150/+120)
Dane Myers hits a high percentage of his flyballs to center field (40.2% — 98th percentile) and is fortunate to face the game’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.

JR Ritchie – Over/Under 14.5 Pitching Outs (-140/+110)
Recording 14.6 outs per game per started this year on average, JR Ritchie falls in the 23rd 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.
Ha-Seong Kim – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-130/+100)
Ha-seong Kim has had some very poor luck with his batting average since the start of last season; his .187 mark is a good deal lower than his .235 Expected Batting Average, based on the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s interpretation of Statcast data.
Explain: xBA uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s batting average ability more accurately than actual batting average can.
It may be smart to expect better results for the Atlanta Braves offense in future games, considering that the leading projection system (THE BAT X) sees them as the 5th-unluckiest offense in the game this year.
Explain: When teams underperform their projected talent level, markets may undervalue them even while they are likely to perform better in the near future.
