New York Yankees Insights

  • Will Warren – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-105/-125)
    The Washington Nationals have 7 hitters in the projected batting order that will hold the platoon advantage against Will Warren in this game, which is especially precarious given his large platoon split.
    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.
  • Jasson Dominguez – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-230/+175)
    Jasson Dominguez is projected to hit 6th in the batting order in today’s game, which would be a downgrade from his 76% rate of hitting in the top-half of the lineup this year.
    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.

Washington Nationals Insights

  • CJ Abrams – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120/-155)
    CJ Abrams pulls a high percentage of his flyballs (35.9% — 86th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he’ll be hitting them towards the game’s 10th-shallowest RF fences in today’s matchup.
    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.
