(-110/-110)-140

Kansas City Royals – Moneyline (+120)
The Kansas City Royals outfield defense profiles as the worst among every team on the slate today.
Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
Jac Caglianone – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+130/-165)
Jac Caglianone has seen a big increase in his exit velocity lately; just compare his 98-mph average over the past 7 days to his seasonal 93.9-mph average.
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.
Michael Massey – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-170/+130)
Michael Massey pulls a lot of his flyballs (37.2% — 92nd percentile) and will have a big advantage hitting them towards baseball’s 9th-shallowest RF fences today.
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.

Davis Martin – Over/Under 17.5 Pitching Outs (-160/+125)
Davis Martin has recorded 17.5 outs per game per started this year, checking in at the 85th 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.
Miguel Vargas – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+105/-135)
Kansas City’s 3rd-worst outfield defense on the slate creates a favorable matchup for Miguel Vargas, who tends to hit a lot of flyballs.
Explain: This player’s skill set matches up well with the opposing team’s defensive weakness, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.
The Chicago White Sox have been the 7th-luckiest offense in MLB this year, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), and are likely to perform worse in the future
Explain: When teams overperform their projected talent level, markets may overvalue them even while they are likely to perform worse in the near future.
