Washington Nationals Insights

• Cade Cavalli – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-130/+100)
  The Miami Marlins have 6 hitters in the projected offense that will have the handedness advantage against Cade Cavalli in today’s game.
  Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform worse against left-handed hitters (and visa-versa). If several hitters hold this advantage against the pitcher, it can have a huge impact on whether he will perform well or struggle on any given day.
• Luis Garcia – Over/Under Hits
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Luis Garcia Jr. in the 92nd percentile when assessing his batting average talent.
  Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors and regularly tests among the most accurate systems available. Batting average is the most common measure of a player’s ability to generate hits.
• James Wood – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115/-145)
  James Wood has a 99th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (41.2%) and has the misfortune of hitting them towards the league’s 9th-deepest LF fences in today’s matchup.
  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.

Miami Marlins Insights

• Sandy Alcantara – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-130/+100)
  Sandy Alcantara has compiled a 15.3% K% this year, checking in at the 13th percentile.
  Explain: One of the best indicators of future strikeouts is past strikeouts.
• Jakob Marsee – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-180/+135)
  Jakob Marsee is penciled in 6th in the batting order in this matchup, which would be a downgrade from his 97% rate of hitting in the top-half of the lineup this year.
  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.
• The Miami Marlins have 3 hitters in their projected batting order today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Owen Caissie, Kyle Stowers, Connor Norby).
  Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
