Chicago Cubs Insights

• Shota Imanaga – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+120/-155)
  With 6 hitters of opposing handedness in the opposing team’s projected batting order, Shota Imanaga meets a tough challenge while lacking the platoon advantage in most plate appearances 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.
• Nico Hoerner – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-245/+185)
  When it comes to his batting average ability, Nico Hoerner is projected as the 13th-best batter in the game by the leading projection system (THE BAT X).
  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.
• Pete Crow-Armstrong – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-105/-125)
  Today, Pete Crow-Armstrong is at a disadvantage facing the league’s 4th-deepest RF fences given that he hits his flyballs to the pull field at a 42.3% rate (99th percentile).
  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

• Javier Sanoja – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-215/+165)
  Javier Sanoja is projected to hit 5th on the lineup card in today’s game, which would be an upgrade from his 82% rate of hitting in the bottom-half of the batting order this season.
  Explain: The higher in the order a player bats, the more plate appearances he will get and the more opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits higher in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting lower.
• The Miami Marlins have 4 batters in their projected batting order today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (per the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Heriberto Hernandez, Esteury Ruiz, Joe Mack, Kyle Stowers).
  Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
