Cincinnati Reds Insights
- Brady Singer – Over/Under 17.5 Pitching Outs (-130/+100)Recording 93.5 adjusted pitches per GS this year on average, Brady Singer falls in the 87th percentile.Explain: Pitchers who average more pitches per game are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
- TJ Friedl – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-125/-105)The leading projection system (THE BAT X) estimates TJ Friedl’s true offensive ability to be a .291, suggesting that he has had some very poor luck this year given the .068 disparity between that mark and his actual .223 wOBA.Explain: Players that are underperforming should be expected to play worse going forward, which can create value on prop Overs if the lines are too heavily weighing the unlucky, to-date underperformance.
- The Cincinnati Reds have 3 batters in their projected lineup today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (according to the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Matt McLain, Eugenio Suarez, Tyler Stephenson).Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
San Francisco Giants Insights
- Adrian Houser – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-145/+115)It may come as a surprise, but fastballs are generally a pitcher’s least effective pitch. Adrian Houser has used his secondary offerings 5% less often this season (37.4%) than he did last season (42.4%).Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball more often will likely be less effective than he used to be.
- Nate Furman – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-155/+120)Nathan Furman has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this year (100% of the time), but he is projected to bat 6th in the lineup in this matchup.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.
- San Francisco Giants – 2H MoneylineAccording to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the San Francisco Giants’ bullpen profiles as the 7th-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.
