New York Mets Insights

• Sean Manaea – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-115/-115)
  Sean Manaea’s 2055-rpm fastball spin rate this year ranks in the 3rd percentile among all starters.
  Explain: Spin rate is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
• Francisco Lindor – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120/-150)
  Francisco Lindor has seen a notable gain in his exit velocity in recent games; just compare his 93.6-mph average in the last two weeks’ worth of games to his seasonal 91.3-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.
• Juan Soto – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120/-155)
  According to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), Juan Soto ranks as the 3rd-best batter in Major League Baseball.
  Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors and regularly tests among the most accurate systems available.

Washington Nationals Insights

• DJ Herz – Over/Under 12.5 Pitching Outs (+110/-140)
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) expects DJ Herz to have a pitch count in this game, projecting a maximum of 78 pitches.
  Explain: A pitcher who is on a pitch count is likely to be pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
• Andrés Chaparro – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-155/+120)
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) estimates Andres Chaparro’s true offensive ability to be a .309, suggesting that he has had positive variance on his side this year given the .059 disparity between that figure and his actual .368 wOBA.
  Explain: Players that are overperforming should be expected to play worse going forward, which can create value on prop Unders if the lines are too heavily weighing the lucky, to-date overperformance.
• It may be sensible to expect worse results for the Washington Nationals offense the rest of the season, given that the leading projection system (THE BAT X) views them as the 10th-luckiest offense in baseball this year.
  Explain: When teams overperform their projected talent level, markets may overvalue them even while they are likely to perform worse in the near future.
