Cincinnati Reds Insights
- Blake Dunn – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-195/+150)New York’s #3-ranked outfield defense of all teams on the slate poses a formidable challenge for Blake Dunn, who tends to hit a lot of flyballs.Explain: This player’s skill set matches up poorly with the opposing team’s defensive strength, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
- Cincinnati Reds – 2H MoneylineAccording to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Cincinnati Reds’ bullpen grades out as the 5th-worst among all the teams in the league.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.
New York Yankees Insights
- New York Yankees – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (+120)Elmer Rodriguez is an extreme groundball pitcher (48.7% GB% via the leading projection system, THE BAT), which should make him somewhat immune to the dangers of pitching in Yankee Stadium — the #4 HR venue in MLB — in today’s game.Explain: This pitcher’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-expected performance.
- Jasson Dominguez – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-180/+135)Jasson Dominguez is projected to bat 2nd on the lineup card in this matchup, which would be an upgrade from his 50% rate of hitting in the bottom-half of the lineup this year.Explain: The higher in the order a player bats, the more plate appearances he will get and the more opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits higher in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting lower.
- Anthony Volpe – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-130/+100)Anthony Volpe hits many of his flyballs to center field (39.7% — 97th percentile) and will have to hit them out towards MLB’s 5th-deepest CF fences in today’s game.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.
