How to Watch Braves vs White Sox - Tuesday, June 09, 2026

-150O/U: 9
(-120/+100)+130

Grant Holmes – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-110/-120)
Grading out in the 82nd percentile, Grant Holmes recorded a 12.7% Swinging Strike rate this year.
Explain: Swinging Strike% measures how often a pitcher gets a batter to whiff at a pitch and is regarded to be a strong indicator of strikeout ability and overall pitching talent.
Matt Olson – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+100/-130)
Matt Olson has been hot of late, raising his seasonal exit velocity of 93.6-mph to 96.1-mph in the past two weeks’ worth of games.
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.
Dominic Smith – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-180)
Dominic Smith hits a lot of his flyballs to center field (39.7% — 97th percentile) and will have a big advantage facing the league’s 11th-shallowest CF fences in today’s matchup.
Explain: This player’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.

Despite technically being the “starter” in today’s matchup, Brandon Eisert may not last more than a couple frames considering he will function as more of an opener.
Explain: Openers have become a common strategy where a relief pitcher is used for the first (and maybe second) inning. This can suppress early run scoring as relievers are generally of a higher quality than non-ace starters.
Tristan Peters – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-160/+125)
Tristan Peters has been lucky this year, compiling a .354 wOBA despite the leading projection system (THE BAT X) estimating his true talent level to be .290 — a .064 deviation.
Explain: Players that are overperforming should be expected to play worse going forward, which can create value on prop Unders if the lines are too heavily weighing the lucky, to-date overperformance.
The underlying talent of the Chicago White Sox projected lineup today (.305 projected wOBA per the leading projection system, THE BAT X) figures to be quite a bit weaker than their .323 wOBA this year.
Explain: Betting lines are often based on seasonal team quality. If today’s lineup is watered down, however, there may be value if markets aren’t accounting for the lower quality of this offense.
