Washington Nationals Insights

  • Washington Nationals – Moneyline (+160)
    The Washington Nationals outfield defense projects as the 3rd-best out of all the teams today.
    Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing hits and runs.
  • Jacob Young – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-150/+115)
    Jacob Young has struggled with his Barrel% in recent games; his 6.2% seasonal rate has lowered to 0% in the last week’s worth of games.
    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.
  • According to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), the projected lineup for the Washington Nationals today owns an estimated true talent wOBA of .293, which is a good deal lower than their actual wOBA of .330 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.

Miami Marlins Insights

  • Miami Marlins – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-200)
    Eury Perez is an extreme flyball pitcher (40.9% FB% via the leading projection system, THE BAT) and should be aided by pitching in the #29 HR venue in the league 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-usual performance.
  • Griffin Conine – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125/-165)
    Griffin Conine has seen a notable improvement in his exit velocity of late; just compare his 96.3-mph average in the last two weeks’ worth of games to his seasonal 92.6-mph figure.
    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.
  • The 6.8% Barrel% of the Miami Marlins grades them out as the #27 team in the majors 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.
