Miami Marlins Insights

• Eury Perez – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (+130/-170)
  Eury Perez has averaged 92 adjusted pitches per game per started this year, placing in the 78th percentile.
  Explain: Pitchers who average more pitches per game are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
• Esteury Ruiz – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-105/-125)
  Esteury Ruiz’s average exit velocity has dropped off of late; his 83.5-mph seasonal average has fallen off to 72.1-mph over the past two weeks.
  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.
• Miami Marlins – 2H Moneyline
  According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Miami Marlins’ bullpen ranks as the 3rd-worst among all the teams in MLB.
  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.

San Diego Padres Insights

• Casey Mize – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+110/-145)
  Casey Mize’s slider percentage has spiked by 12.5% from last season to this one (15.3% to 27.8%) .
  Explain: Because sliders are one of the most effective pitches to use, a pitcher who alters his pitch mix to use more of them will often see more success as a result.
• Fernando Tatis Jr. – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115/-145)
  Extreme flyball bats like Fernando Tatis Jr. usually hit better against extreme groundball pitchers like Eury Perez.
  Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create boosted performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
• Fernando Tatis Jr. – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115/-145)
  Fernando Tatis Jr. hits a lot of his flyballs to center field (39.8% — 97th percentile) and sets up very well considering he’ll be hitting out towards the game’s 2nd-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.
