Baltimore Orioles Insights

• Anthony Nunez – Over/Under Pitching Outs
  Taking into account both his underlying tendencies and the matchup, Anthony Nunez is projected to throw 23 pitches in today’s game by the leading projection system (THE BAT X) system, which is the 2nd-least of all pitchers today.
  Explain: Pitchers who throw relatively few pitches are more likely to get pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
• Adley Rutschman – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+150/-195)
  The switch-hitting Adley Rutschman will get to bat from his good side (0) today against Max Fried.
  Explain: Right-handed hitters perform better against left-handed pitchers (and visa-versa). This can have a huge impact on whether a hitter will perform well or struggle on any given day.
• Coby Mayo – Over/Under 0.5 RBIs (+235/-325)
  Coby Mayo pulls a high percentage of his flyballs (38.6% — 95th percentile) and has the misfortune of hitting them in the direction of baseball’s 8th-deepest LF fences in today’s game.
  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.

New York Yankees Insights

• Max Fried – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-145/+115)
  As a result of his reverse platoon split, Max Fried will be in a good position being matched up with 8 batters in the projected batting order of the opposite hand in this matchup.
  Explain: A pitcher with a reverse platoon split will perform better against opposite-handed hitters (i.e. a right-handed pitcher will be better against a left-handed hitter). Holding this advantage against several hitters can have a huge impact on whether a pitcher will perform well or struggle on any given day.
• New York Yankees – Moneyline (-225)
  The best projected offense on the slate in terms of overall hitting ability is that of the New York Yankees.
  Explain: A pitcher who faces a strong opposing offense will be more likely to underperform his usual performance, particularly in terms of hits and runs, in that game.
