San Francisco Giants Insights

  • Logan Webb – Over/Under 18.5 Pitching Outs (+115/-150)
    Compared to the average starting pitcher, Logan Webb has been given an above-average leash this year, tallying an additional 6.6 adjusted pitches each game.
    Explain: Pitchers with a longer leash are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
  • Willy Adames – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-180)
    Willy Adames is an extreme flyball hitter and squares off against the strong outfield defense of Texas (#3-best of the day).
    Explain: This player’s skill set matches up poorly with the opposing team’s defensive strength, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
  • The underlying talent of the San Francisco Giants projected lineup today (.300 projected wOBA according to the leading projection system, THE BAT X) figures to be a good deal weaker than their .313 wOBA this year.
    Explain: Betting lines are often based on seasonal team quality. If today’s lineup is watered down, however, there may be value if markets aren’t accounting for the lower quality of this offense.

Texas Rangers Insights

  • Cal Quantrill – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-125/-105)
    Contrary to popular belief, fastballs are generally a pitcher’s least effective pitch. Cal Quantrill has utilized his secondary offerings 9% less often this year (53.8%) than he did last season (62.8%).
    Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball more often will likely be less effective than he used to be.
  • Jake Burger – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-175/+135)
    Jake Burger has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this year (72% of the time), but he is projected to hit 6th in the lineup in this matchup.
    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.
  • Texas’s 91.6-mph exit velocity on flyballs makes them the #23 group of hitters in the game this year by this metric.
    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.
