Colorado Rockies Insights
- Gabriel Hughes – Over/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-135/+105)Gabriel Hughes’s high usage rate of his fastball (59.7% this year) is likely harming his results, since they are typically much less effective than breaking or off-speed pitches.Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so pitchers who rely too heavily on them tend to be less effective than they otherwise would be.
- Willi Castro – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-160/+125)Willi Castro has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this season (56% of the time), but he is projected to hit 7th in the lineup today.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.
- Colorado Rockies – 2H MoneylineThe Colorado Rockies bullpen projects as the 3rd-worst in the game, per the leading projection system (THE BAT).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.
Arizona Diamondbacks Insights
- Mike Soroka – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+110/-140)Among all starters, Michael Soroka’s fastball spin rate of 2516 rpm is in the 94th percentile this year.Explain: Spin rate is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
- Ketel Marte – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115/-150)Ketel Marte has been cold lately, with his seasonal exit velocity of 90.2-mph dropping to 82.9-mph over the past 14 days.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.
- Ketel Marte – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115/-150)Ketel Marte pulls a lot of his flyballs (46% — 93rd percentile) and will have to hit them out towards the league’s 3rd-deepest RF fences in today’s matchup.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.
