Seattle Mariners Insights

  • Seattle Mariners – Moneyline (-110)
    The Seattle Mariners infield defense profiles as the 4th-worst among every team playing today.
    Explain: Defense is an integral part of preventing (or, in this case, allowing) hits and runs.
  • Dominic Canzone – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-185/+140)
    Dominic Canzone is penciled in 3rd on the lineup card today, which would be an upgrade from his 74% rate of hitting in the bottom-half of the batting order this year.
    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.
  • Logan Gilbert – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-125/-105)
    Projected catcher Cal Raleigh profiles as an elite pitch framer, per the leading projection system (THE BAT).
    Explain: Pitch framing is a catcher’s ability to make a ball look like a strike to the umpire, “stealing” strikes for his pitcher. This leads to more positive outcomes (like strikeouts) and fewer negative ones (like walks or earned runs).

Tampa Bay Rays Insights

  • Griffin Jax – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (+140/-180)
    Tallying 75.6 adjusted pitches per start this year on average, Griffin Jax checks in at the 8th percentile.
    Explain: Pitchers who average more pitches per game are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
  • Nick Fortes – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-125/-105)
    Nick Fortes’s exit velocity on flyballs has dropped off this year; his 90.9-mph mark last season has fallen off to 86.9-mph.
    Explain: Most home runs are flyballs, and the harder those flyballs are hit, the more often they turn into home runs. This is a strong indicator of power.
  • Tampa Bay Rays – 2H Moneyline
    According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Tampa Bay Rays’ bullpen profiles as the 9th-worst out of all the teams in MLB.
    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.
