    Jacob Lopez – Over\/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-130\/+100)<\/strong><\/div>\n
    Considering that flyball batters struggle against flyball pitchers, Jacob Lopez (40.6% GB% according to the leading projection system, THE BAT) is well-situated today with 3 FB hitters in the opposing club’s projected lineup.<\/div>\n
    Explain:<\/strong> 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.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Jeff McNeil – Over\/Under Total Bases<\/strong><\/div>\n
    Jeff McNeil’s exit velocity on flyballs has fallen off this season; his 89.6-mph figure last year has lowered to 87.5-mph.<\/div>\n
    Explain:<\/strong> Most home runs are flyballs, and the harder those flyballs are hit, the more often they turn into home runs. This is a strong indicator of power.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Athletics – 2H Moneyline<\/strong><\/div>\n
    The Athletics bullpen profiles as the 2nd-worst in the game, 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

    Houston Astros Insights<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • \n
      Hunter Brown – Over\/Under 6.5 Strikeouts (+110\/-145)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Hunter Brown has gone to his sinker 5.5% more often this season (29.1%) than he did last season (23.6%).<\/div>\n
      Explain:<\/strong> Sinkers are the easiest pitches to hit and generate the fewest strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his sinker more often will likely be less effective than he used to be.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Yordan Alvarez – Over\/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-110\/-120)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Yordan Alvarez is an extreme flyball batter and faces the weak outfield defense of Sacramento (#2-worst on the slate today).<\/div>\n
      Explain:<\/strong> This player’s skill set matches up well with the opposing team’s defensive weakness, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n
      Isaac Paredes – Over\/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+140\/-180)<\/strong><\/div>\n
      Isaac Paredes pulls a lot of his flyballs (46.3% \u2014 100th percentile) and has the good fortune of hitting them towards MLB’s 2nd-shallowest LF fences today.<\/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
