San Diego Padres Insights

• Randy Vasquez – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (+105/-135)
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Randy Vasquez to throw 82 pitches in this matchup (4th-least of all pitchers on the slate today), considering both his underlying tendencies and the matchup.
  Explain: Pitchers who throw relatively few pitches are more likely to get pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
• Jake Cronenworth – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-170/+135)
  The Colorado Rockies have just 1 same-handed RP in their bullpen, so Jake Cronenworth stands a good chance of holding the platoon advantage against every reliever all game.
  Explain: Hitters perform worse against pitchers of the same handedness (i.e. righty-vs-righty), and being able to avoid those matchups against the bullpen boosts performance and creates hidden edge.
• San Diego Padres – 2H Moneyline
  According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the San Diego Padres’ bullpen grades out as the best out of all major league teams.
  Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a strong bullpen sneakily creates a tougher matchup for the opposing offense and suppresses a game’s runs.

Colorado Rockies Insights

• Colorado Rockies – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (+105)
  Chase Dollander has relied on his sinker 14.3% more often this year (24.4%) than he did last year (10.1%).
  Explain: Sinkers are the easiest pitches to hit and generate the fewest strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his sinker more often will likely be less effective than he used to be.
• Hunter Goodman – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-235/+180)
  Hunter Goodman has experienced some positive variance in regards to his batting average since the start of last season; his .273 mark is a fair amount higher than his .217 Expected Batting Average, based on the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s interpretation of Statcast data.
  Explain: xBA uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s batting average ability more accurately than actual batting average can.
• The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects that the Colorado Rockies will record 5.84 runs on average in this matchup: the 2nd-most of all teams in action today.
  Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors like player quality, ballpark, weather, umpire, defense, and more.
