Colorado Rockies Insights

  • Michael Lorenzen – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-120/-110)
    Out of all SPs, Michael Lorenzen’s fastball spin rate of 2397 rpm is in the 77th percentile this year.
    Explain: Spin rate is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
  • T.J. Rumfield – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-180/+135)
    T.J. Rumfield has been lucky this year, posting a .374 wOBA despite the leading projection system (THE BAT X) estimating his true talent level to be .299 — a .075 disparity.
    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.
  • Colorado Rockies – 2H Moneyline
    The Colorado Rockies bullpen projects as the worst in the league, 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.

San Diego Padres Insights

  • Michael King – Over/Under 17.5 Pitching Outs (-155/+120)
    Recording 92.8 adjusted pitches per game per started this year on average, Michael King checks in at the 84th percentile.
    Explain: Pitchers who average more pitches per game are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
  • Xander Bogaerts – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-180/+140)
    Xander Bogaerts is penciled in 8th in the batting order today, which would be a downgrade from his 73% rate of hitting in the top-half of the batting order this year.
    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.
  • Fernando Tatis Jr. – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+105/-135)
    Fernando Tatis Jr. hits a high percentage of his flyballs to center field (40.2% — 99th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he’ll be hitting towards the league’s 2nd-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.
