Milwaukee Brewers Insights
- Brandon Sproat – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+110/-145)Among all starters, Brandon Sproat’s fastball spin rate of 2057 rpm grades out in the 7th percentile this year.Explain: Spin rate is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
- Jake Bauers – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-105/-125)Jake Bauers has been lucky this year, posting a .380 wOBA despite the leading projection system (THE BAT X) estimating his true talent level to be .328 — a .052 difference.Explain: Players that are overperforming should be expected to play worse going forward, which can create value on prop Unders if the lines are too heavily weighing the lucky, to-date overperformance.
- Milwaukee Brewers – 2H MoneylineThe Milwaukee Brewers bullpen profiles as the 2nd-best in baseball, via the leading projection system (THE BAT).Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a strong bullpen sneakily creates a tougher matchup for the opposing offense and suppresses a game’s runs.
Athletics Insights
- Jack Perkins – Over/Under 12.5 Pitching Outs (+115/-145)The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Jackson Perkins to throw 79 pitches in this matchup (6th-least of all pitchers on the slate), considering both his underlying tendencies and the matchup.Explain: Pitchers who throw relatively few pitches are more likely to get pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
- Nick Kurtz – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-130/+100)Nick Kurtz has made sizeable gains with his Barrel% recently, bettering his 18.6% seasonal rate to 29.2% in the past two weeks’ worth of games.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.
- Shea Langeliers – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-155/+120)In today’s game, Shea Langeliers is at a disadvantage facing the league’s 2nd-deepest CF center field fences given that he hits his flyballs towards center field at a 38.3% rate (83rd percentile).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.
