Miami Marlins Insights

  • Sandy Alcantara – Over/Under 18.5 Pitching Outs (+135/-175)
    Sandy Alcantara has been given an above-average leash this year, throwing 7.4 more adjusted pitches-per-start than the average starting pitcher.
    Explain: Pitchers with a longer leash are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
  • Jakob Marsee – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-225/+170)
    Jakob Marsee is penciled in 7th on the lineup card in today’s game, which would be a downgrade from his 63% rate of hitting in the top-half of the batting order this year.
    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.
  • As forecasted by the leading projection system (THE BAT X), the Miami Marlins are expected to tally the most runs (7.08 on average) of all teams on the slate.
    Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors like player quality, ballpark, weather, umpire, defense, and more.

Colorado Rockies Insights

  • Sean Sullivan – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (+100/-130)
    The Miami Marlins have 6 hitters in the projected offense that will hold the platoon advantage against Sean Sullivan in this matchup.
    Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform worse against left-handed hitters (and visa-versa). If several hitters hold this advantage against the pitcher, it can have a huge impact on whether he will perform well or struggle on any given day.
  • T.J. Rumfield – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-115/-115)
    T.J. Rumfield has been cold in recent games, with his seasonal exit velocity of 84.4-mph dropping to 80.6-mph in the past two weeks’ 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.
  • According to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), the projected batting order for the Colorado Rockies in this game has an estimated true talent wOBA of .304, which is a good deal lower than their actual wOBA of .322 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.
