New York Yankees Insights
- Will Warren – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+105/-135)Will Warren has gone to his four-seamer 5.4% less often this year (36.3%) than he did last season (41.7%).Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball lessoften will likely be more effective than he used to be.
- Austin Wells – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-110/-120)Austin Wells is an extreme flyball batter and matches up with the weak outfield defense of Minnesota (#1-worst of all teams on the slate today).Explain: This player’s skill set matches up well with the opposing team’s defensive weakness, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.
- Luis García Jr. – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115/-150)Luis Garcia Jr. hits a high percentage of his flyballs to center field (39.4% — 95th percentile) and has the misfortune of hitting them in the direction of the game’s 10th-deepest CF fences today.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.
Minnesota Twins Insights
- Dean Kremer – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-140/+110)In his previous start, Dean Kremer turned in a great performance and put up 9 strikeouts.Explain: A pitcher who was strong in his last outing may be sharp once again in his next outing.
- Brooks Lee – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-225/+170)Brooks Lee has primarily hit in the back-half of the batting order this year (57% of the time), but he is penciled in 2nd in the lineup 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.
- The Minnesota Twins have been the 7th-luckiest offense in baseball this year, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), and are likely to perform worse in future gamesExplain: When teams overperform their projected talent level, markets may overvalue them even while they are likely to perform worse in the near future.
