St. Louis Cardinals

Texas Rangers Insights

• Texas Rangers – Moneyline (-130)
  Among every team in action today, the 2nd-best infield defense belongs to the Texas Rangers.
  Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing hits and runs.
• Josh Jung – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+110/-140)
  Josh Jung’s exit velocity on flyballs has dropped off this year; his 93.3-mph average last season has fallen off to 91.2-mph.
  Explain: Most home runs are flyballs, and the harder those flyballs are hit, the more often they turn into home runs. This is a strong indicator of power.
• Danny Jansen – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-135/+105)
  Danny Jansen pulls many of his flyballs (43.1% — 100th percentile) and will have to hit them out towards baseball’s 7th-deepest LF fences today.
  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.

St. Louis Cardinals Insights

• As forecasted by the leading projection system (THE BAT X), Michael McGreevy is expected to ring up a combined total of 4.9 strikeouts and walks in today’s game.
  Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors like ballpark, weather, umpire, and more.
• Nolan Gorman – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-110/-120)
  Nolan Gorman is an extreme flyball hitter and matches up with the strong outfield defense of Texas (#2-best on the slate).
  Explain: This player’s skill set matches up poorly with the opposing team’s defensive strength, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
• The St. Louis Cardinals have 3 batters in their projected lineup today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (per the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Nolan Gorman, Jimmy Crooks, Jordan Walker).
  Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
