Houston Astros Insights

• LaMonte Wade Jr – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-105/-125)
  LaMonte Wade Jr. has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this year (57% of the time), but he is projected to bat 9th on the lineup card in this game.
  Explain: The lower in the order a player bats, the fewer plate appearances he will get and the fewer opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits lower in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting higher.
• Houston Astros – Moneyline (+100)
  The 3rd-best projected lineup of all teams today in terms of overall batting skill belongs to the Houston Astros.
  Explain: A pitcher who faces a strong opposing offense will be more likely to underperform his usual performance, particularly in terms of hits and runs, in that game.

San Diego Padres Insights

• Randy Vasquez – Over/Under 13.5 Pitching Outs (-115/-115)
  The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Randy Vasquez to throw 74 pitches today (3rd-least of all pitchers on the slate today), considering both his underlying tendencies and the matchup.
  Explain: Pitchers who throw relatively few pitches are more likely to get pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
• San Diego Padres – 2H Moneyline
  According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the San Diego Padres’ bullpen grades out as the best among all teams in the majors.
  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.
