Boston Red Sox

Texas Rangers Insights

• Jack Leiter – Over/Under 17.5 Pitching Outs (-130/+100)
  Jack Leiter has averaged 93.3 adjusted pitches per game per started this year, ranking in the 83rd percentile.
  Explain: Pitchers who average more pitches per game are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
• Josh Jung – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+105/-135)
  Josh Jung has been hot in recent games, whalloping 3 HRs over the past 14 days.
  Explain: Strong recent performance may mean the player is seeing the ball well and will continue to hit well in the near-term.
• Texas Rangers – 2H Moneyline
  The Texas Rangers bullpen projects as the 5th-worst in the league, per the leading projection system (THE BAT).
  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.

Boston Red Sox Insights

• Sonny Gray – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+130/-165)
  Sonny Gray’s cut-fastball usage has increased by 8.5% from last year to this one (12.6% to 21.1%) .
  Explain: Because cutters are one of the most effective pitches to use, a pitcher who alters his pitch mix to use more of them will often see more success as a result.
• Wilyer Abreu – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+105/-135)
  Wilyer Abreu is an extreme flyball hitter and faces the strong outfield defense of Texas (#3-best of all teams today).
  Explain: This player’s skill set matches up poorly with the opposing team’s defensive strength, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
• Jarren Duran – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120/-155)
  Jarren Duran has a 93rd percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (36%) and sets up very well considering he’ll be hitting them in the direction of baseball’s shallowest LF fences in today’s game.
  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.
