Davis Martin – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-140/+110)
Placing in the 83rd percentile, Davis Martin notched a 12.5% Swinging Strike rate this year.
Explain: Swinging Strike% measures how often a pitcher gets a batter to whiff at a pitch and is regarded to be a strong indicator of strikeout ability and overall pitching talent.
Munetaka Murakami – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135/-180)
Munetaka Murakami’s 94.8-mph average exit velocity ranks among the best in the league this year: 99th percentile.
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.
Colson Montgomery – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+165/-215)
Colson Montgomery pulls a high percentage of his flyballs (40.1% — 97th percentile) and sets up very well considering he’ll be hitting them towards the game’s 2nd-shallowest RF fences in today’s matchup.
Explain: This player’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.

Trevor McDonald – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-145/+115)
Because flyball batters struggle against flyball pitchers, Trevor McDonald (51.5% GB% according to the leading projection system, THE BAT) is well-situated today with 2 FB hitters in the opposing team’s projected lineup.
Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create boosted performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
Luis Arraez – Over/Under 1.5 Hits (+165/-215)
As it relates to his batting average skill, Luis Arraez is projected as the 4th-best hitter in Major League Baseball by 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.
The San Francisco Giants have 3 hitters in their projected batting order today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (according to the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Daniel Susac, Willy Adames, Bryce Eldridge).
Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
