Washington Nationals Insights

  • Brad Lord – Over/Under 9.5 Pitching Outs (-125/-105)
    The leading projection system (THE BAT X) expects Brad Lord to be on a pitch count in this matchup, projecting a maximum of 79 pitches.
    Explain: A pitcher who is on a pitch count is likely to be pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
  • Daylen Lile – Over/Under 1.5 Hits (+190/-250)
    The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Daylen Lile in the 89th percentile when assessing his batting average skill.
    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.
  • According to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), the projected lineup for the Washington Nationals today owns an estimated true talent wOBA of .295, which is quite a bit worse than their actual wOBA of .330 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.

Miami Marlins Insights

  • Agustin Ramirez – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-140/+110)
    Agustin Ramirez has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this year (75% of the time), but he is projected to hit 8th in the batting order in today’s game.
    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.
