Washington Nationals Insights
- Miles Mikolas – Over/Under Pitching OutsRecording 13.1 outs per outing this year on average, Miles Mikolas places him the 7th percentile.Explain: A pitcher who averages more outs per start than his Outs prop may be a good bet to go over, and visa-versa for the under.
- Daylen Lile – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-225/+170)Daylen Lile is penciled in 6th on the lineup card in this matchup, which would be a downgrade from his 69% rate of hitting in the top-half of the lineup this season.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.
- CJ Abrams – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+140/-180)CJ Abrams pulls many of his flyballs (35.3% — 83rd percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he’ll be hitting them towards the game’s 2nd-shallowest RF fences in today’s game.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.
San Francisco Giants Insights
- Logan Webb – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+120/-155)Despite conventional wisdom, fastballs are generally a pitcher’s least effective pitch. Logan Webb has gone to his secondary offerings 6.1% less often this year (52.6%) than he did last season (58.7%).Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball more often will likely be less effective than he used to be.
- The San Francisco Giants have 3 bats in their projected batting order today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (according to the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Willy Adames, Bryce Eldridge, Eric Haase).Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
