Seattle Mariners Insights

• Emerson Hancock – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-145/+115)
  Despite conventional wisdom, fastballs are generally a pitcher’s least effective pitch. Emerson Hancock has gone to his off-speed and breaking pitches 7.9% more often this year (43.8%) than he did last year (35.9%).
  Explain: A pitcher who limits has fastball usage will instead heavily use change-ups, curveballs, sliders, etc. These are far more effective pitches at preventing runs and generating strikeouts.
• Dominic Canzone – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-155/+120)
  Dominic Canzone has seen a big improvement in his exit velocity this season; just compare his 95.2-mph average to last season’s 92.5-mph average.
  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.
• Emerson Hancock – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-145/+115)
  Projected catcher Cal Raleigh projects as an elite pitch framer, per the leading projection system (THE BAT).
  Explain: Pitch framing is a catcher’s ability to make a ball look like a strike to the umpire, “stealing” strikes for his pitcher. This leads to more positive outcomes (like strikeouts) and fewer negative ones (like walks or earned runs).

San Diego Padres Insights

• San Diego Padres – Moneyline (-110)
  Among every team in action today, the 2nd-best infield defense is that of the San Diego Padres.
  Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing hits and runs.
• Jackson Merrill – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-170)
  Jackson Merrill has suffered from bad luck when it comes to his wOBA since the start of last season; his .327 figure is a fair amount lower than his .367 Expected wOBA, based on the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s interpretation of Statcast data.
  Explain: xwOBA uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s overall hitting ability more accurately than actual wOBA can.
• San Diego Padres – 2H Moneyline
  The San Diego Padres bullpen ranks as the best in Major League 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.
