San Francisco Giants Insights

• San Francisco Giants – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (+110)
  Trevor McDonald is an extreme groundball pitcher (51.1% GB% according to the leading projection system, THE BAT), which should make him somewhat immune to the dangers of pitching in Sutter Health Park — the #7 HR venue in the majors — today.
  Explain: This pitcher’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-expected performance.
• The San Francisco Giants have been the 2nd-unluckiest offense in Major League Baseball this year, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), and are likely to positively regress in future games
  Explain: When teams underperform their projected talent level, markets may undervalue them even while they are likely to perform better in the near future.

Athletics Insights

• Luis Severino – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-140/+110)
  Luis Severino’s four-seam fastball usage has fallen by 6.6% from last season to this one (27.6% to 21%) .
  Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball lessoften will likely be more effective than he used to be.
• Henry Bolte – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-265/+195)
  Henry Bolte has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this season (67% of the time), but he is projected to bat 6th in the lineup in today’s game.
  Explain: The lower in the order a player bats, the fewer plate appearances he will get and the fewer opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits lower in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting higher.
• Athletics – 2H Moneyline
  The Athletics bullpen projects as the 6th-worst in Major League Baseball, via the leading projection system (THE BAT).
  Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a weak bullpen sneakily creates an easier matchup for the opposing offense and boosts a game’s runs.
