Chicago White Sox – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (+110)
Sean Newcomb has been lucky this year, putting up a 2.66 ERA despite the leading projection system (THE BAT) estimating his true talent level to be 4.28 — a 1.62 deviation.
Explain: Pitchers that are overperforming should be expected to pitch worse going forward, which can create value if the lines are too heavily weighing the lucky, to-date overperformance.
Chase Meidroth – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-165/+130)
Chase Meidroth has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this season (66% of the time), but he is projected to bat 7th in the batting order 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.
The 8.6% Barrel% of the Chicago White Sox grades them out as the #9 offense in baseball this year by this metric.
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.

Jackson Jobe – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-120/-110)
Jackson Jobe’s 96-mph fastball velocity since the start of last season grades out in the 91st percentile among all starting pitchers.
Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
Gleyber Torres – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+150/-195)
Gleyber Torres’s average exit velocity has decreased this season; his 89.8-mph EV last year has decreased to 86-mph.
Explain: Hitting the ball hard increases the chances of either a home run or the ball landing in fair territory for a hit before a fielder can get to it.
Gleyber Torres – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+150/-195)
Today, 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.
