Boston Red Sox Insights

• Ranger Suárez – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-110/-120)
  With 6 hitters of the opposite hand in the opposing team’s projected offense, Ranger Suarez has a tough challenge while lacking the platoon advantage in most plate appearances in today’s 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.
• Jarren Duran – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-175/+135)
  Jarren Duran has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this year (58% of the time), but he is projected to hit 7th in the lineup in this game.
  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.

Baltimore Orioles Insights

• Baltimore Orioles – Moneyline (+100)
  The Baltimore Orioles outfield defense profiles as the 4th-worst among all the teams today.
  Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
• Coby Mayo – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-180/+140)
  Coby Mayo pulls many of his flyballs (40.3% — 98th percentile) and has the misfortune of hitting them in the direction of the game’s 4th-deepest LF fences in today’s matchup.
  Explain: This player’s skill set does not match up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
