Texas Rangers Insights

• Jacob deGrom – Over/Under 7.5 Strikeouts (-120/-110)
  With 6 bats who share his hand in the opposing team’s projected offense, Jacob deGrom ought to benefit from having the platoon advantage in most plate appearances today.
  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.
• Danny Jansen – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-120/-110)
  Danny Jansen is an extreme flyball batter and matches up with the weak outfield defense of Los Angeles (#3-worst of the day).
  Explain: This player’s skill set matches up well with the opposing team’s defensive weakness, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.
• Danny Jansen – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-120/-110)
  Danny Jansen pulls a high percentage of his flyballs (43.1% — 100th percentile) but may find it hard to clear the game’s 11th-deepest LF fences in today’s matchup.
  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.

Los Angeles Angels Insights

• Los Angeles Angels – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (+140)
  Grayson Rodriguez allowed a whopping 7 earned runs in his last outing.
  Explain: A pitcher who struggled in his last outing may have something wrong that affects him in his next outing as well.
• Mike Trout – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-175)
  Mike Trout has made big strides with his Barrel%, bettering his 15.5% rate last year to 21.8% this season.
  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.
• The Los Angeles Angels have 4 batters in their projected batting order today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Jorge Soler, Mike Trout, Zach Neto, Logan O’Hoppe).
  Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
