Cincinnati Reds Insights
- Cincinnati Reds – Moneyline (-115)Out of all the teams on the slate today, the 5th-weakest outfield defense belongs to the Cincinnati Reds.Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
- JJ Bleday – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-125/-105)The Colorado Rockies have just 1 same-handed RP in their bullpen, so JJ Bleday stands a good chance of never losing the platoon advantage against the ‘pen 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.
- According to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), the Cincinnati Reds are expected to record the most runs (7.7 on average) of all teams 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.
Colorado Rockies Insights
- Tomoyuki Sugano – Over/Under 13.5 Pitching Outs (-115/-115)The leading projection system (THE BAT X) expects Tomoyuki Sugano to be limited today, projecting a maximum of 81 pitches.Explain: A pitcher who is on a pitch count is likely to be pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
- Brett Sullivan – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-185)Cincinnati’s 3rd-worst outfield defense of the day creates a favorable matchup for Brett Sullivan, who tends to hit a lot of flyballs.Explain: This player’s skill set matches up well with the opposing team’s defensive weakness, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.
- The underlying talent of the Colorado Rockies projected batting order today (.303 projected wOBA according to the leading projection system, THE BAT X) figures to be significantly worse than their .323 wOBA this year.Explain: Betting lines are often based on seasonal team quality. If today’s lineup is watered down, however, there may be value if markets aren’t accounting for the lower quality of this offense.
