Baltimore Orioles Insights

  • Kyle Bradish – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+110/-140)
    Given that groundball pitchers are hit hardest by flyball hitters, Kyle Bradish (47.2% GB% via the leading projection system, THE BAT) will be a bit disadvantaged in today’s game with 2 FB hitters in Boston’s projected lineup.
    Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create diminished performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
  • Gunnar Henderson – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125/-160)
    Despite posting a .302 wOBA this year, the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes Gunnar Henderson has been unlucky given the .044 gap between that figure and his estimated true talent wOBA of .346.
    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.
  • The Baltimore Orioles (26.5% K% (via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) are forecasted to have the most strikeout-prone team of hitters on the slate today.
    Explain: THE BAT X analyzes each player in today’s specific lineup to figure out which teams have the most inherent strikeout potential for the opposing pitcher.

Boston Red Sox Insights

  • Boston Red Sox – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-115)
    The Baltimore Orioles have 7 batters in the projected batting order that will have the benefit of the platoon advantage against Eduardo Rivera in this game.
    Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform worse against left-handed hitters (and visa-versa). If several hitters hold this advantage against the pitcher, it can have a huge impact on whether he will perform well or struggle on any given day.
  • Jarren Duran – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-170/+135)
    Jarren Duran has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this season (81% of the time), but he is projected to hit 7th on the lineup card in this 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.
  • Boston Red Sox hitters as a unit have been among the worst in the majors this year ( 3rd-worst) in regard to their 87.9-mph average exit velocity.
    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.
