Chicago White Sox Insights

  • Noah Schultz – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (+135/-175)
    Compared to average, Noah Schultz has been granted a shorter leash than the average pitcher since the start of last season, throwing an -11.3 fewer adjusted pitches each start.

San Diego Padres Insights

  • German Marquez – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-165/+125)
    It may come as a surprise, but fastballs are generally a pitcher’s least effective pitch. German Marquez has utilized his off-speed and breaking pitches 7.5% more often this year (52.2%) than he did last year (44.7%).
    Explain: A pitcher who limits has fastball usage will instead heavily use change-ups, curveballs, sliders, etc. These are far more effective pitches at preventing runs and generating strikeouts.
  • Fernando Tatis Jr. – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125/-160)
    Fernando Tatis Jr. has struggled with his Barrel% recently; his 12.9% seasonal rate has lowered to 0% over the last week.
    Explain: Barrel% measures how often a player hits the ball at the optimal exit velocity and launch angle and is a terrific measure of underlying power.
  • San Diego Padres – 2H Moneyline
    The San Diego Padres bullpen grades out as the best in MLB, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT).
    Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a strong bullpen sneakily creates a tougher matchup for the opposing offense and suppresses a game’s runs.
