Seattle Mariners Insights
- Bryan Woo – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+115/-150)Bryan Woo’s higher utilization percentage of his secondary pitches this season (34.7% vs. 27.2% last season) ought to work in his favor considering they are generally much more effective than fastballs.Explain: A pitcher who limits has fastball usage will instead heavily use change-ups, curveballs, sliders, etc. These are far more effective pitches at preventing runs and generating strikeouts.
- Cal Raleigh – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-120/-110)Cal Raleigh has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this season (91% of the time), but he is penciled in 6th in the lineup today.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.
- Seattle Mariners – 2H MoneylineThe Seattle Mariners bullpen ranks as the 10th-worst in the majors, via the leading projection system (THE BAT).Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a weak bullpen sneakily creates an easier matchup for the opposing offense and boosts a game’s runs.
Los Angeles Dodgers Insights
- Roki Sasaki – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-135/+105)Roki Sasaki’s 97.1-mph velocity on his fastball this year is a substantial 1.7-mph increase from last season’s 95.4-mph mark.Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs, so a pitcher who improves his velocity will likely see improved results.
- Tommy Edman – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125/-165)Tommy Edman’s exit velocity on flyballs has fallen off this year; his 89.3-mph figure last season has fallen off to 85.4-mph.Explain: Most home runs are flyballs, and the harder those flyballs are hit, the more often they turn into home runs. This is a strong indicator of power.
- Mookie Betts – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+130/-170)Mookie Betts hits many of his flyballs to center field (40% — 98th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he’ll be hitting towards the league’s 9th-shallowest CF fences in today’s game.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.
