Cleveland Guardians Insights

  • Austin Hedges – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-115/-115)
    Austin Hedges’s batting average talent is projected to be in the 4th percentile according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X).
    Explain: THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors and regularly tests among the most accurate systems available. Batting average is the most common measure of a player’s ability to generate hits.
  • Cleveland Guardians – 2H Moneyline
    The Cleveland Guardians bullpen grades out as the 6th-best in the game, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT).
    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.

Detroit Tigers Insights

  • Keider Montero – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (-115/-115)
    Compared to league average, Keider Montero has been granted a shorter leash than the average pitcher this year, tallying an -7.7 fewer adjusted pitches each start.
    Explain: Pitchers with a shorter leash are more likely to get pulled earlier in games and record fewer outs.
  • Eduardo Valencia – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-165/+130)
    Eduardo Valencia has primarily hit in the back-half of the lineup this year (88% of the time), but he is penciled in 4th on the lineup card in this matchup.
    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.
  • Gleyber Torres – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-185/+145)
    In today’s game, Gleyber Torres is at a disadvantage facing the league’s 10th-deepest RF fences given that he hits his flyballs to the opposite field at a 40.1% rate (99th percentile).
    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.
