San Francisco Giants Insights

• San Francisco Giants – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-105)
  Given that groundball pitchers are hit hardest by flyball hitters, Robbie Ray (41% GB% via the leading projection system, THE BAT) will be a bit disadvantaged in this game with 3 FB hitters in San Diego’s projected offense.
  Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create diminished performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
• The San Francisco Giants have 5 hitters in their projected lineup today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Daniel Susac, Bryce Eldridge, Rafael Devers, Willy Adames, Grant McCray).
  Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts

San Diego Padres Insights

• San Diego Padres – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-125)
  JP Sears’s slider utilization has decreased by 8.8% from last year to this one (37.6% to 28.8%) .
  Explain: Because sliders are one of the most effective pitches to use, a pitcher who alters his pitch mix to use them less often may see less success as a result, particularly if he uses his fastball more instead.
• Luis Rengifo – Over/Under Hits
  Luis Rengifo has primarily hit in the back-half of the lineup this season (70% of the time), but he is projected to hit 2nd in the batting order in this game.
  Explain: The higher in the order a player bats, the more plate appearances he will get and the more opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits higher in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting lower.
• San Diego Padres – 2H Moneyline
  According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the San Diego Padres’ bullpen grades out as the 2nd-best among all major league teams.
  Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a strong bullpen sneakily creates a tougher matchup for the opposing offense and suppresses a game’s runs.
