+110O/U: 7.5
(-105/-115)-130

Cal Quantrill – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-115/-115)
Cal Quantrill has a large reverse platoon split and should be helped facing 7 opposite-handed hitters in today’s game.
Explain: A pitcher with a reverse platoon split will perform better against opposite-handed hitters (i.e. a right-handed pitcher will be better against a left-handed hitter). Holding this advantage against several hitters can have a huge impact on whether a pitcher will perform well or struggle on any given day.
Jake Burger – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-145/+115)
Jake Burger has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this year (64% of the time), but he is projected to bat 7th on the lineup card today.
Explain: The lower in the order a player bats, the fewer plate appearances he will get and the fewer opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits lower in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting higher.
The 7.6% Barrel% of the Texas Rangers makes them the #21 group of hitters in baseball this year by this stat.
Explain: Barrel% measures how often a player hits the ball at the optimal exit velocity and launch angle and is a terrific measure of underlying power.

Bryce Miller – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+115/-150)
Bryce Miller’s 95.4-mph velocity on his fastball this year is a notable 1.2-mph rise from last year’s 94.2-mph mark.
Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs, so a pitcher who improves his velocity will likely see improved results.
Cole Young – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-170/+130)
Cole Young’s average exit velocity has fallen off lately; his 88.1-mph seasonal mark has fallen to 79.9-mph in the past two weeks’ worth of games.
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.
Cal Raleigh – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125/-160)
Cal Raleigh pulls many of his flyballs (43.9% — 100th percentile) and will have a big advantage hitting them towards baseball’s 4th-shallowest RF 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.
