Houston Astros Insights

• Spencer Arrighetti – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+110/-145)
  Among all starting pitchers, Spencer Arrighetti’s fastball velocity of 91.8 mph is in the 21st percentile this year.
  Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
• Christian Walker – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-155/+120)
  Christian Walker’s average exit velocity has fallen off lately; his 89.3-mph seasonal mark has lowered to 78.2-mph in the last week’s 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.
• Isaac Paredes – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-185)
  Isaac Paredes pulls a high percentage of his flyballs (68.1% — 100th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he’ll be hitting them towards the game’s 5th-shallowest LF 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.

Chicago White Sox Insights

• Tristan Peters – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-150/+120)
  Despite posting a .341 wOBA this year, the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes Tristan Peters has experienced some positive variance given the .045 deviation between that mark and his estimated true talent wOBA of .296.
  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.
• It may be best to expect weaker performance for the Chicago White Sox offense in the future, considering that the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes they are the 8th-luckiest offense in the game this year.
  Explain: When teams overperform their projected talent level, markets may overvalue them even while they are likely to perform worse in the near future.
