Cleveland Guardians

Chicago White Sox Insights

• Davis Martin – Over/Under 2.5 Strikeouts (-130/+100)
  The Cleveland Guardians have 8 hitters in the projected batting order that will hold the platoon advantage against Davis Martin in this matchup.
  Explain: Right-handed pitchers perform worse against left-handed hitters (and visa-versa). If several hitters hold this advantage against the pitcher, it can have a huge impact on whether he will perform well or struggle on any given day.
• Randal Grichuk – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125/-160)
  Randal Grichuk has seen a substantial improvement in his exit velocity in recent games; just compare his 97.3-mph average in the past two weeks to his seasonal 91.6-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.
• Compared to their .329 overall projected rate, the .317 the leading projection system (THE BAT X) wOBA of the Chicago White Sox projected lineup today suggests this version of the lineup significantly weaker than usual.
  Explain: Betting lines are often based on seasonal team quality. If today’s lineup is watered down, however, there may be value if markets aren’t accounting for the lower quality of this offense.

Cleveland Guardians Insights

• Jose Ramirez – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+110/-140)
  Despite posting a .296 wOBA this year, the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes Jose Ramirez has experienced some negative variance given the .042 disparity between that mark and his estimated true talent wOBA of .338.
  Explain: Players that are underperforming should be expected to play worse going forward, which can create value on prop Overs if the lines are too heavily weighing the unlucky, to-date underperformance.
• Cleveland Guardians batters as a unit grade out 30th- in baseball for power this year when using their 5.8% 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.
