St. Louis Cardinals Insights<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • \n
    Michael McGreevy – Over\/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-110\/-120)<\/strong><\/div>\n
    Among all starters, Michael McGreevy’s fastball velocity of 90.7 mph is in the 6th percentile this year.<\/div>\n
    Explain:<\/strong> Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Nathan Church – Over\/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-150\/+115)<\/strong><\/div>\n
    Based on Statcast data, the leading projection system (THE BAT X)’s version of Expected HR per 600 plate appearances (0.0) may lead us to conclude that Nathan Church has been very fortunate since the start of last season with his 20.7 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
    <\/strong><\/div>\n
    St. Louis Cardinals hitters as a group rank among the best in MLB this year (9th-) as it relates to their 89.4-mph average exit velocity.<\/div>\n
    Explain:<\/strong> 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.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    San Diego Padres Insights<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • \n
      Griffin Canning – Over\/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (+100\/-130)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Griffin Canning has recorded 14.3 outs per start since the start of last season, ranking in the 12th percentile.<\/div>\n
      Explain:<\/strong> A pitcher who averages more outs per start than his Outs prop may be a good bet to go over, and visa-versa for the under.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Ramon Laureano – Over\/Under 0.5 Hits (-180\/+140)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Ramon Laureano has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this year (83% of the time), but he is penciled in 7th in the batting order in this game.<\/div>\n
      Explain:<\/strong> 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.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Fernando Tatis Jr. – Over\/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+125\/-160)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Fernando Tatis Jr. hits a high percentage of his flyballs to center field (40.2% \u2014 98th percentile) and will have a big advantage facing the league’s 2nd-shallowest CF fences in today’s matchup.<\/div>\n
      Explain:<\/strong> This player’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        San Diego Padres – Run Line -1.5 (+145)<\/strong><\/div>\n
        The San Diego Padres have hit the Run Line in 14 of their last 23 games at home (+7.05 Units \/ 24% ROI)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n
        St. Louis Cardinals – Moneyline (+130)<\/strong><\/div>\n
        The St. Louis Cardinals have hit the Moneyline in 8 of their last 10 away games (+8.30 Units \/ 83% ROI)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n
        Jordan Walker – Over\/Under 0.5 Home Runs (+440\/-700)<\/strong><\/div>\n
        Jordan Walker has hit the Home Runs Over in 2 of his last 7 games (+7.30 Units \/ 104% ROI)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
