Toronto Blue Jays Insights
- Toronto Blue Jays – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-150)Eric Lauer’s 90.9-mph fastball velocity since the start of last season is in the 17th percentile out of all SPs.Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
- George Springer – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-105/-125)Since the start of last season, George Springer’s 16.6% Barrel%, a reliable metric for measuring power, places him in the 96th percentile among his peers.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.
- It may be sensible to expect worse numbers for the Toronto Blue Jays offense in the future, considering that the leading projection system (THE BAT X) sees them as the 2nd-luckiest offense in the majors since the start of last season.Explain: When teams overperform their projected talent level, markets may overvalue them even while they are likely to perform worse in the near future.
Chicago White Sox Insights
- Grant Taylor – Over/Under Pitching OutsThe leading projection system (THE BAT X) expects Grant Taylor to be limited in this game, projecting a maximum of 61 pitches.Explain: A pitcher who is on a pitch count is likely to be pulled from the game earlier, record fewer outs, and generate fewer strikeouts.
- Reese McGuire – Over/Under Total BasesReese McGuire will probably have an edge against every reliever throughout the game, since the bullpen of the Toronto Blue Jays has just 1 same-handed RP.Explain: Hitters perform worse against pitchers of the same handedness (i.e. righty-vs-righty), and being able to avoid those matchups against the bullpen boosts performance and creates hidden edge.
- Chicago White Sox – 2H MoneylineThe Chicago White Sox bullpen profiles as the worst in the game, via the leading projection system (THE BAT).Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a weak bullpen sneakily creates an easier matchup for the opposing offense and boosts a game’s runs.
