Miami Marlins Insights

  • Max Meyer – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-115/-115)
    With 6 hitters who bat from the opposite side in the opposing team’s projected offense, Max Meyer will have a disadvantage while lacking the platoon advantage in most plate appearances in today’s game.
    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.
  • Xavier Edwards – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-185)
    Extreme flyball hitters like Xavier Edwards usually hit worse against extreme flyball pitchers like Andrew Alvarez.
    Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create diminished performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
  • Kyle Stowers – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+130/-170)
    Kyle Stowers pulls many of his flyballs (34.1% — 78th percentile) and has the good fortune of hitting them towards the league’s 10th-shallowest RF fences today.
    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.

Washington Nationals Insights

  • Washington Nationals – Moneyline (-105)
    Out of every team on the slate today, the 2nd-best infield defense belongs to the Washington Nationals.
    Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing hits and runs.
  • Luis Garcia – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-185/+145)
    Luis Garcia Jr. has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this season (89% of the time), but he is penciled in 8th 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.
  • It may be smart to expect worse numbers for the Washington Nationals offense in future games, considering that the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes they are the luckiest offense in Major League Baseball this year.
    Explain: When teams overperform their projected talent level, markets may overvalue them even while they are likely to perform worse in the near future.
