Texas Rangers Insights<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • \n
    Jack Leiter – Over\/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-110\/-120)<\/strong><\/div>\n
    The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects that Jack Leiter will tally an average of 5.9 strikeouts in today’s matchup.<\/div>\n
    Explain:<\/strong> THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors like ballpark, weather, umpire, and more.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Brandon Nimmo – Over\/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+135\/-170)<\/strong><\/div>\n
    The Athletics have just 1 same-handed RP in their bullpen, so Brandon Nimmo stands a good chance of holding the advantage against every reliever all game.<\/div>\n
    Explain:<\/strong> Hitters perform worse against pitchers of the same handedness (i.e. righty-vs-righty), and being able to avoid those matchups against the bullpen boosts performance and creates hidden edge.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Texas Rangers – 2H Moneyline<\/strong><\/div>\n
    The Texas Rangers bullpen ranks as the 4th-worst in the majors, per the leading projection system (THE BAT).<\/div>\n
    Explain:<\/strong> 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.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Athletics Insights<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • \n
      Jacob Lopez – Over\/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-110\/-120)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Jacob Lopez has utilized his cut-fastball 7.3% more often this season (21.5%) than he did last season (14.2%).<\/div>\n
      Explain:<\/strong> Because cutters are one of the most effective pitches to use, a pitcher who alters his pitch mix to use more of them will often see more success as a result.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Nick Kurtz – Over\/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125\/-160)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Based on Statcast data, the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s version of Expected HR per 600 plate appearances (30.1) may lead us to conclude that Nick Kurtz has had positive variance on his side since the start of last season with his 39.6 actual HR\/600.<\/div>\n
      Explain:<\/strong> xHR uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s home run ability more accurately than actual home runs can.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Lawrence Butler – Over\/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-135\/+105)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Lawrence Butler has a 96th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (38%) but may find it hard to clear baseball’s 6th-deepest LF fences today.<\/div>\n
      Explain:<\/strong> 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.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
