(-110/-110)-160

Houston Astros – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (+135)
In his last start, Mike Burrows allowed a colossal 5 earned runs.
Explain: A pitcher who struggled in his last outing may have something wrong that affects him in his next outing as well.
Jeremy Pena – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-185)
Jeremy Pena’s average exit velocity has declined this year; his 88.7-mph EV last season has fallen to 84.7-mph.
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.
Yordan Alvarez – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+110/-140)
In today’s matchup, Yordan Alvarez is at a disadvantage facing the league’s 6th-deepest CF center field fences given that he hits his flyballs towards center field at a 38.3% rate (84th percentile).
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.

Texas Rangers – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-170)
Jacob deGrom is an extreme flyball pitcher (39.4% FB% via the leading projection system, THE BAT) and is fortunate enough to be pitching in the #22 HR venue among all stadiums in this matchup.
Explain: This pitcher’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.
Danny Jansen – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-120/-110)
The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Danny Jansen in the 5th percentile when it comes to his batting average ability.
Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors and regularly tests among the most accurate systems available. Batting average is the most common measure of a player’s ability to generate hits.
Texas has performed as the #27 group of hitters in MLB when it comes to hitting balls between 23° and 34°, the launch angle range that tends to best-produce home runs (13.5% rate this year).
Explain: Balls that are hit too low can’t clear the fences, and balls that are hit too high generally don’t go far enough and are easy pop flies, but balls hit between 23° and 34° are far more likely to become home runs.
