Quick Takes Philadelphia Phillies:
Cristopher Sanchez's 93.4-mph velocity on his fastball this year is a substantial 1.8-mph rise from last season's 91.6-mph mark.
- Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs, so a pitcher who improves his velocity will likely see improved results.
Bryce Harper is likely to have the upper hand against every reliever for the whole game, since the bullpen of the New York Mets only has 1 same-handed RP.
- 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.
Edmundo Sosa pulls a high percentage of his flyballs (34.5% — 83rd percentile) and will have a big advantage hitting them towards baseball's 4th-shallowest LF fences in today's game.
- This player's skill set matches up particularly well with the park he's in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.
Quick Takes New York Mets:
Sean Manaea projects for 2.31 earned runs in today's outing, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X).
- THE BAT X is a highly sophisticated projection system that accounts for a multitude of factors like ballpark, weather, umpire, defense, and more.
Extreme groundball hitters like Starling Marte tend to perform worse against extreme groundball pitchers like Cristopher Sanchez.
- This mostly has to do with the way the hitter's swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create diminished performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
Positioned 3rd-steepest in the majors since the start of last season, New York Mets hitters as a unit have notched a 13.9° launch angle on their highest exit velocity balls (a reliable standard to measure power ability).
- If you hit the ball hard but straight at the ground, it doesn't do you any good. A player that is skilled at lifting his hardest hit balls into the air stands the best chance of turning them into extra-base hits or home runs.

- The New York Mets have hit the Game Total Under in 38 of their last 64 games at home (+14.95 Units / 21% ROI)
