Seattle Mariners Insights

• Seattle Mariners – Moneyline (-115)
  Out of every team playing today, the weakest outfield defense is that of the Seattle Mariners.
  Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
• J.P. Crawford – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125/-160)
  In the last 7 days, J.P. Crawford’s Barrel% has experienced a negative regression, plummeting from his seasonal rate of 8.3% down to 0%.
  Explain: Barrel% measures how often a player hits the ball at the optimal exit velocity and launch angle and is a terrific measure of underlying power.
• The Seattle Mariners have been the 10th-unluckiest offense in baseball this year, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), and are likely to hit better going forward
  Explain: When teams underperform their projected talent level, markets may undervalue them even while they are likely to perform better in the near future.

Athletics Insights

• Luis Severino – Over/Under 17.5 Pitching Outs (+100/-130)
  Compared to the average pitcher, Luis Severino has been granted a longer leash than the average pitcher this year, recording an extra 6.9 adjusted pitches each game.
  Explain: Pitchers with a longer leash are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
• Jeff McNeil – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+140/-180)
  The Seattle Mariners have just 1 same-handed RP in their bullpen, so Jeff McNeil has a strong chance of holding the advantage against every reliever all game.
  Explain: Hitters perform worse against pitchers of the same handedness (i.e. righty-vs-righty), and being able to avoid those matchups against the bullpen boosts performance and creates hidden edge.
• Athletics – 2H Moneyline
  The Athletics bullpen projects as the 6th-worst in MLB, according to 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.
