Los Angeles Angels Insights

  • Reid Detmers – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-140/+110)
    Reid Detmers’s 2145-rpm fastball spin rate this year grades out in the 8th percentile out of all SPs.
    Explain: Spin rate is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
  • Jose Siri – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-135/+105)
    Jose Siri has seen a substantial increase in his exit velocity in recent games; just compare his 94.2-mph average over the past 14 days to his seasonal 89.2-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.
  • Christian Moore – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-155/+120)
    Christian Moore has a 96th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (37.3%) and will have a big advantage hitting them in the direction of baseball’s 3rd-shallowest RF fences in today’s matchup.
    Explain: This player’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.

Boston Red Sox Insights

  • Patrick Sandoval – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (-115/-115)
    Tallying 14.7 outs per GS this year on average, Patrick Sandoval places in the 24th percentile.
    Explain: A pitcher who averages more outs per start than his Outs prop may be a good bet to go over, and visa-versa for the under.
  • Patrick Sandoval – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-145/+115)
    Connor Wong, the Red Sox’s expected catcher today, grades out as a horrible pitch framer according to 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).
