Chicago White Sox Insights

• Davis Martin – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+100/-130)
  Davis Martin has gone to his cutter 9.4% less often this year (13.5%) than he did last year (22.9%).
  Explain: Because cutters 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.
• Tristan Peters – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-130/+100)
  Tristan Peters has been cold in recent games, with his seasonal exit velocity of 86.3-mph dropping to 82.9-mph over the past 14 days.
  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.
• It may be best to expect negative regression for the Chicago White Sox offense going forward, given that the leading projection system (THE BAT X) views them as the 2nd-luckiest offense in Major League Baseball this year.
  Explain: When teams overperform their projected talent level, markets may overvalue them even while they are likely to perform worse in the near future.

New York Yankees Insights

• Gerrit Cole – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-135/+105)
  Gerrit Cole’s 96.1-mph fastball velocity this year ranks in the 91st percentile among all starters.
  Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
• New York Yankees – 2H Moneyline
  According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the New York Yankees’ bullpen grades out as the 8th-best out of all MLB teams.
  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.
