San Francisco Giants Insights
- Landen Roupp – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-140/+110)Considering that flyball pitchers hold a big edge over flyball hitters, Landen Roupp and his 47.6% underlying FB% (according to the leading projection system, THE BAT) finds himself in a good spot in this outing squaring off against 2 opposing FB hitters.Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create boosted performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
- Bryce Eldridge – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-190/+145)Bryce Eldridge has primarily hit in the back-half of the lineup this year (52% of the time), but he is projected to bat 2nd in the lineup in today’s game.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.
- Heliot Ramos – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+130/-170)Heliot Ramos has a 93rd percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (36.1%) but may find it hard to clear the game’s 6th-deepest RF 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.
San Diego Padres Insights
- Kyle Hart – Over/Under 2.5 Strikeouts (+145/-190)Kyle Hart will hold the platoon advantage over 6 opposing hitters in today’s game… and will be extra-advantaged due to his large platoon split.Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform better against right-handed hitters (and the same for lefties). Having this advantage against a lot of opposing hitters can have a huge impact on whether a pitcher will perform well or struggle on any given day.
- Ty France – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-190)Ty France has seen a substantial improvement in his exit velocity in recent games; just compare his 94.6-mph average over the past two weeks to his seasonal 92.4-mph figure.Explain: Hitting the ball hard increases the chances of either a home run or the ball landing in fair territory for a hit before a fielder can get to it.
- The San Diego Padres (20 K% (via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) are forecasted to have the 5th-least strikeout-prone set of batters of all teams today.Explain: THE BAT X analyzes each player in today’s specific lineup to figure out which teams have the least inherent strikeout potential for the opposing pitcher.
