Milwaukee Brewers Insights

  • Jose Quintana – Over/Under 9.5 Pitching Outs (+125/-160)
    Jose Quintana has averaged 91.2 adjusted pitches per game per started this year, placing in the 76th percentile.
    Explain: Pitchers who average more pitches per game are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
  • Milwaukee Brewers – 2H Moneyline
    The Milwaukee Brewers bullpen ranks as the 2nd-best in baseball, via 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.

Los Angeles Dodgers Insights

  • Los Angeles Dodgers – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-230)
    Shohei Ohtani has had some very poor luck with his ERA this year; his 2.87 rate is significantly inflated relative to his 1.97 FIP (Fielding Independent Pitching, an estimator of ERA that focuses on the things a pitcher has the most control over).
    Explain: Pitchers that are underperforming should be expected to pitch better going forward, which can create value if the lines are too heavily weighing the lucky, to-date underperformance.
  • Max Muncy – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-130/+100)
    Max Muncy is an extreme flyball batter and faces the strong outfield defense of Milwaukee (#1-best of the day).
    Explain: This player’s skill set matches up poorly with the opposing team’s defensive strength, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
  • Max Muncy – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-130/+100)
    Max Muncy pulls a lot of his flyballs (41.3% — 99th percentile) and has the misfortune of hitting them in the direction of the league’s 8th-deepest RF fences today.
    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.
