Pittsburgh Pirates Insights

• Mitch Keller – Over/Under Strikeouts
  Mitch Keller’s slider usage has decreased by 7.4% from last year to this one (33% to 25.6%) .
  Explain: Because sliders are one of the most effective pitches to use, a pitcher who alters his pitch mix to use them less often may see less success as a result, particularly if he uses his fastball more instead.

New York Yankees Insights

• Gerrit Cole – Over/Under Strikeouts
  Among all starting pitchers, Gerrit Cole’s fastball velocity of 96.2 mph is in the 91st percentile this year.
  Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
• New York Yankees – 2H Moneyline
  The New York Yankees bullpen grades out as the 9th-best in baseball, per 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.
