Colorado Rockies Insights

  • Ryan Feltner – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+120/-155)
    With 6 batters who share his handedness in the opposing team’s projected offense, Ryan Feltner should benefit from having the platoon advantage in most plate appearances in this game.
    Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform better against right-handed hitters (and the same for lefties). Having this advantage against a lot of opposing hitters can have a huge impact on whether a pitcher will perform well or struggle on any given day.
  • Troy Johnston – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-170/+135)
    Troy Johnston has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this season (60% of the time), but he is projected to bat 7th on the lineup card in today’s 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.
  • Colorado Rockies – 2H Moneyline
    According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Colorado Rockies’ bullpen ranks as the 2nd-worst out of all the teams in MLB.
    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.

Minnesota Twins Insights

  • Minnesota Twins – Moneyline (-165)
    The Minnesota Twins outfield defense projects as the 2nd-worst out of all the teams in action today.
    Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
  • Trevor Larnach – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-185)
    The Colorado Rockies have just 1 same-handed RP in their bullpen, so Trevor Larnach has a strong chance of 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.
  • Alex Jackson – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-125/-105)
    Alex Jackson hits many of his flyballs to center field (39.3% — 95th percentile) but may find it hard to clear the league’s 10th-deepest CF fences in today’s game.
    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.
