Injury Report for Royals vs Tigers - Tuesday, April 14th, 2026

+100O/U: 8
(-110/-110)-120

Cole Ragans – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (+135/-175)
Cole Ragans has tallied 13.6 outs per GS since the start of last season, checking in at the 6th percentile.
Explain: A pitcher who averages more outs per start than his Outs prop may be a good bet to go over, and visa-versa for the under.
Carter Jensen – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-145/+110)
Carter Jensen is penciled in 8th in the lineup in today’s game, which would be a downgrade from his 83% rate of hitting in the top-half of the lineup 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.
Vinnie Pasquantino – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+150/-195)
In today’s game, Vinnie Pasquantino is at a disadvantage facing the league’s 10th-deepest RF fences given that he hits his flyballs to the pull field at a 37.5% rate (93rd 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.

Framber Valdez – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-145/+110)
Because of his large reverse platoon split, Framber Valdez will be at an advantage matching up with 7 bats in the projected batting order who bat from the opposite side in this game.
Explain: A pitcher with a reverse platoon split will perform better against opposite-handed hitters (i.e. a right-handed pitcher will be better against a left-handed hitter). Holding this advantage against several hitters can have a huge impact on whether a pitcher will perform well or struggle on any given day.
Gleyber Torres – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-180)
Gleyber Torres’s average exit velocity has fallen off this season; his 89.8-mph mark last season has fallen to 83-mph.
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.
As a team, Detroit Tigers bats have shined in regard to hitting balls in the launch angle span that tends to optimize home runs (between 23° and 34°), placing best in the majors.
Explain: Balls that are hit too low can’t clear the fences, and balls that are hit too high generally don’t go far enough and are easy pop flies, but balls hit between 23° and 34° are far more likely to become home runs.

Detroit Tigers – Over/Under 1.5 1st Five Innings (F5) Team Total (-140/+110)
The Detroit Tigers have hit the 1st Five Innings (F5) Team Total Over in 22 of their last 35 games at home (+8.95 Units / 22% ROI)
Kansas City Royals – Over/Under 3.5 Team Total (-125/-105)
The Kansas City Royals have hit the Team Total Under in 10 of their last 16 games (+4.05 Units / 23% ROI)

Bobby Witt Jr. has hit the Runs Under in 18 of his last 20 games (+16.30 Units / 67% ROI)
