Washington Nationals Insights

• Foster Griffin – Over/Under 6.5 Strikeouts (+125/-160)
  With 6 bats of the opposite hand in the opposing team’s projected lineup, Foster Griffin meets a tough challenge while lacking the platoon advantage in most plate appearances in today’s outing.
  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.
• James Wood – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+100/-130)
  James Wood has been hot recently, raising his seasonal exit velocity of 95.7-mph to 100.3-mph over the last 7 days.
  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.
• According to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), the projected offense for the Washington Nationals in this game holds an estimated true talent wOBA of .312, which is significantly worse than their actual wOBA of .323 this year.
  Explain: Betting lines are often based on seasonal team quality. If today’s lineup is watered down, however, there may be value if markets aren’t accounting for the lower quality of this offense.

Baltimore Orioles Insights

• Baltimore Orioles – Moneyline (-120)
  Among every team on the slate today, the 3rd-worst outfield defense belongs to the Baltimore Orioles.
  Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
• Tyler O’Neill – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-165/+125)
  As it relates to his home runs, Tyler O’Neill has suffered from bad luck since the start of last season. His 18.5 HR per 600 plate appearances rate has been significantly deflated relative to the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s version of Statcast-based Expected HR/600 at 34.2.
  Explain: xHR uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s home run ability more accurately than actual home runs can.
• Baltimore Orioles – 2H Moneyline
  According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Baltimore Orioles’ bullpen grades out as the 9th-worst among all the teams in Major League Baseball.
  Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a weak bullpen sneakily creates an easier matchup for the opposing offense and boosts a game’s runs.
