Chicago White Sox Insights

• David Sandlin – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-110/-120)
  The Kansas City Royals have 6 batters in the projected offense that will receive the benefit of the platoon advantage against David Sandlin in today’s game.
  Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform worse against left-handed hitters (and visa-versa). If several hitters hold this advantage against the pitcher, it can have a huge impact on whether he will perform well or struggle on any given day.
• Braden Montgomery – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-180/+140)
  Braden Montgomery is an extreme groundball batter and faces the strong infield defense of Kansas City (#2-best of all teams on the slate today).
  Explain: This player’s skill set matches up poorly with the opposing team’s defensive strength, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
• Colson Montgomery – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-145/+115)
  Colson Montgomery pulls a lot of his flyballs (41.2% — 99th percentile) and has the misfortune of hitting them in the direction of baseball’s deepest RF fences today.
  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.

• Isaac Collins – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-130/+100)
  As a switch-hitter who is weaker from the 0 side of the dish, Isaac Collins will bat from his worse side against David Sandlin today.
