Philadelphia Phillies Insights

  • Kyle Schwarber – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-145/+110)
    Kyle Schwarber has been hot lately, raising his seasonal exit velocity of 94.3-mph to 97-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.
  • Philadelphia Phillies – 2H Moneyline
    According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Philadelphia Phillies’ bullpen profiles as the 5th-best among all major league teams.
    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.

Los Angeles Dodgers Insights

  • Yoshinobu Yamamoto – Over/Under 7.5 Strikeouts (+115/-150)
    Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s curveball usage has fallen by 5.6% from last season to this one (23.2% to 17.6%) .
    Explain: Because curveballs are one of the most effective pitches to use, a pitcher who alters his pitch mix to use them less often may see less success as a result, particularly if he uses his fastball more instead.
  • Max Muncy – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-135/+105)
    Max Muncy is an extreme flyball hitter and faces the weak outfield defense of Philadelphia (#1-worst of all teams on the slate today).
    Explain: This player’s skill set matches up well with the opposing team’s defensive weakness, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.
  • Max Muncy – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-135/+105)
    Max Muncy pulls a high percentage of his flyballs (41.3% — 99th percentile) and will be challenged by the game’s 8th-deepest RF fences today.
    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.
