  • \n
    Robert Stock – Over\/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-140\/+110)<\/strong><\/div>\n
    The Pittsburgh Pirates have 6 batters in the projected offense that will have the handedness advantage over Robert Stock in this game, which is especially precarious given his large platoon split.<\/div>\n
    Explain:<\/strong> Right-handed pitchers perform worse against left-handed hitters (and visa-versa). If several hitters hold this advantage against the pitcher, it can have a huge impact on whether he will perform well or struggle on any given day.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Jorge Polanco – Over\/Under 0.5 Hits (-145\/+115)<\/strong><\/div>\n
    Jorge Polanco is projected to hit 8th in the batting order in this matchup, which would be a downgrade from his 65% rate of hitting in the top-half of the lineup this year.<\/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
    <\/strong><\/div>\n
    New York Mets bats jointly rank 7th- in the majors for power this year when judging by their 8.7% Barrel%.<\/div>\n
    Explain:<\/strong> 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.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    • \n
      Bubba Chandler – Over\/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-115\/-115)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Among all starting pitchers, Bubba Chandler’s fastball velocity of 97.9 mph is in the 99th 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
      Jake Mangum – Over\/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+120\/-150)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Jake Mangum’s average exit velocity has declined this year; his 87.4-mph mark last season has dropped off to 85.2-mph.<\/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
    • \n
      Henry Davis – Over\/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-110\/-120)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      In today’s game, Henry Davis is at a disadvantage facing the league’s 10th-deepest LF fences given that he hits his flyballs to the pull field at a 38.9% rate (95th percentile).<\/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
