New York Mets Insights

  • Robert Stock – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+120/-150)
    Robert Stock’s 95.1-mph fastball velocity this year ranks in the 79th percentile among all starting pitchers.
    Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
  • A.J. Ewing – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-195/+150)
    A.J. Ewing is penciled in 7th on the lineup card in this matchup, which would be a downgrade from his 60% rate of hitting in the top-half of the lineup this season.
    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.
  • New York Mets – Moneyline (+105)
    The New York Mets projected batting order grades out as the 2nd-strongest of all teams on the slate in terms of overall batting ability.
    Explain: A pitcher who faces a strong opposing offense will be more likely to underperform his usual performance, particularly in terms of hits and runs, in that game.

Miami Marlins Insights

  • Janson Junk – Over/Under 13.5 Pitching Outs (-120/-110)
    Considering both his underlying tendencies and the matchup, Janson Junk is projected to throw 80 pitches in this outing by the leading projection system (THE BAT X) system, which is the 10th-least on the slate today.
    Explain: Pitchers who throw relatively few pitches are more likely to get pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
  • Griffin Conine – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-190)
    The New York Mets have just 1 same-handed RP in their bullpen, so Griffin Conine can likely count on never facing a bullpen mismatch 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.
  • Miami Marlins bats jointly place 26th- in the game for power this year when assessing with their 6.8% Barrel%.
    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.
