Washington Nationals Insights

  • Jake Irvin – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-155/+120)
    In his last outing, Jake Irvin was in good form and posted 7 strikeouts.
    Explain: A pitcher who was strong in his last outing may be sharp once again in his next outing.
  • Nasim Nunez – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-140/+110)
    Nasim Nunez has been cold recently, with his seasonal exit velocity of 84.2-mph dropping to 79.7-mph in the past week’s worth of games.
    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.
  • James Wood – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+105/-135)
    James Wood has a 99th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (39.8%) and will be challenged by the league’s 3rd-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.

Atlanta Braves Insights

  • Atlanta Braves – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-135)
    Grant Holmes is projected to average 3.15 earned runs in today’s game, as forecasted 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 like ballpark, weather, umpire, defense, and more.
  • Austin Riley – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-180)
    Despite posting a .286 wOBA this year, the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes Austin Riley has had bad variance on his side given the .048 deviation between that mark and his estimated true talent wOBA of .334.
    Explain: Players that are underperforming should be expected to play worse going forward, which can create value on prop Overs if the lines are too heavily weighing the unlucky, to-date underperformance.
  • According to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), the offense with the least strikeout-heavy lineup on the slate today is the Atlanta Braves with a 19.8% underlying K%.
    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.
