Chicago Cubs Insights
- Pete Crow-Armstrong – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-180/+135)Pete Crow-Armstrong has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this season (71% of the time), but he is projected to bat 8th on the lineup card today.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 weaker performance for the Chicago Cubs offense in the future, considering that the leading projection system (THE BAT X) views them as the 2nd-luckiest offense in the league since the start of last season.Explain: When teams overperform their projected talent level, markets may overvalue them even while they are likely to perform worse in the near future.
Cleveland Guardians Insights
- Chase DeLauter – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-160/+125)Chase DeLauter has been hot lately, cruising to a .533 wOBA over the past 7 days.Explain: Strong recent performance may mean the player is seeing the ball well and will continue to hit well in the near-term.
- Cleveland’s 88.4-mph average exit velocity since the start of last season is one of the worst in Major League Baseball: #30 overall.Explain: Hitting the ball hard increases the chances of either a home run or the ball landing in fair territory for a hit before a fielder can get to it.
