Dive Into the Simulation and Insights for Braves vs Marlins Match Preview - May 19, 2026

-140O/U: 8
(-110/-110)+120

Martin Perez – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-115/-115)
Martin Perez has relied on his four-seam fastball 5.2% more often this year (8.8%) than he did last year (3.6%).
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.
Matt Olson – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125/-160)
Despite posting a .394 wOBA this year, the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes Matt Olson has had positive variance on his side given the .044 disparity between that mark and his estimated true talent wOBA of .350.
Explain: Players that are overperforming should be expected to play worse going forward, which can create value on prop Unders if the lines are too heavily weighing the lucky, to-date overperformance.
Ozzie Albies – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+105/-135)
Ozzie Albies pulls a lot of his flyballs (39.8% — 97th percentile) and will be challenged by baseball’s 9th-deepest LF fences in today’s matchup.
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.

Miami Marlins – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (+100)
Braxton Garrett conceded a colossal 5 earned runs in his last GS.
Explain: A pitcher who struggled in his last outing may have something wrong that affects him in his next outing as well.
Christopher Morel – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-155/+120)
Christopher Morel has primarily hit in the back-half of the batting order this year (67% of the time), but he is projected to bat 4th in the lineup in this matchup.
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.
The Miami Marlins have 5 bats in their projected lineup today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Christopher Morel, Kyle Stowers, Connor Norby, Joe Mack, Heriberto Hernandez).
Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
