Baltimore Orioles

Houston Astros Insights

• Peter Lambert – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (+130/-170)
  Considering both his underlying tendencies and the matchup, Peter Lambert is projected to throw 83 pitches in today’s game by the leading projection system (THE BAT X) system, which is the 2nd-least of all pitchers on the slate today.
  Explain: Pitchers who throw relatively few pitches are more likely to get pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
• Houston Astros – 2H Moneyline
  The Houston Astros bullpen projects as the 5th-best in baseball, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT).
  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.

Baltimore Orioles Insights

• Chris Bassitt – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+110/-140)
  Because of his large platoon split, Chris Bassitt will be in a good position squaring off against 7 bats in the projected lineup who share his handedness in today’s matchup.
  Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform better against right-handed hitters (and the same for lefties). Having this advantage against a lot of opposing hitters can have a huge impact on whether a pitcher will perform well or struggle on any given day.
• Gunnar Henderson – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-255/+190)
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Gunnar Henderson in the 93rd percentile when assessing his batting average ability.
  Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors and regularly tests among the most accurate systems available. Batting average is the most common measure of a player’s ability to generate hits.
• Coby Mayo – Over/Under 0.5 RBIs (+210/-280)
  Today, Coby Mayo is at a disadvantage facing the league’s 4th-deepest LF fences given that he hits his flyballs to the pull field at a 38.6% rate (95th percentile).
  Explain: This player’s skill set does not match up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
