#003 Career, the Colorado Rockies’ starter, Tyler Chatwood is a huge losing 1-9 SU (-11.71 units, +106.1% roi to fade)! Yesterday he changed it from 0-9 to 1-9. Can he keep it up now with the Rockies (coming from LA)?

#004 The Philadelphia Phillies are a nasty 3-18 (-2.5 rpg, -19.82 units, +82.5% roi fade) this season off of a 1 or 2 run loss! 

#005 Arizona Diamondback’s starter, Ian Kennedy is a perfect 17-0 (+3.2 rpg, +17.88 units, +83.4% roi) since 2011 against division opponents as a smaller dog (+140) to favorite.

#008 Met’s starter R.A. Dickey is having a great 2012 season; he’s 14-3 (2.6 rpg, +12.6 units, +66% roi) while San Francisco’s Tim Lincecum is only 4-14 this season; 1-10 -82% roi with his team off of a win.

#014 Milwaukee Brewer’s starter, Randy Wolf typically gets little appreciation, but today we want to give him a shout out. He’s one of baseball’s most valuable starters that rarely gets the majority of the bets. As a +100 to +150 dog, he’s a killer 31-18 (+1.2 rpg, +20.48 units, +41.8%) AGAINST PLUS .500 WINNING OPPONENTS! Talk about a secret weapon.

#015 Atlanta Brave’s starter Kris Medlen is a stud and few know it. He’s 15-1 (+2.6 rpg, +14.76 units, +69.4% roi) after his first season in the MLB.

#016 Since 2012, St. Louis Cardinal’s starting pitcher Lance Lynn has produced a team record of 23-3 (+3.31 rpg, 88.5%, +19.89 units, +53.2% roi) straight up in games with the Vegas total between 9 and 7. Nine and seven are the two most common totals in MLB so this might be to say that he thrives in unorthodox spots. *Career, Lance Lynn is a massive 18-1 (+4.42 ppg, 94.7%, +16.25 units, +55.7% roi) straight up in all division games he has started in. He is truly a valuable player to the club.

#017 Milwaukee Brewer’s starter, Zack Greinke is a huge 23-3-1 +2.3 rpg, +19.9 (68.6% roi) since 2011 over the total after he won his last start by no more than 5 runs. The Brewers are 20-7 SU +11.2 units in this same situation.

#018 Since 2006, LA Angel’s starter Jered Weaver is a massive 74-28 (+1.89 rpg, 72.5%, +25.74 units) SU as a home favorite. That is an even more insane, 29-7 (+2.42 rpg, 80.6%, +16.64 units, +26.3% roi) SU since 2011. That is 17-3 (+2.5 rpg, 85%, +31.3% roi) SU in the second half of the season, and 10-1 against plus .500 teams.

#019 San Francisco Giant’s ace starter, Tim Lincecum is 22-13 (0.83, 62.9%, +2.3 units) as a home division favorite in his career. This season, Tim is only 6-14 (-1.90, 30.0%) in all of his starts.

#020 Jason Hammel is 13-3 SU (+12.66 units, +76.3% roi) since 2011 on the road after a loss.

#022 In his career, Jered Weaver is 70-26 (72.9%) +27.17 units at home.

#023 Chris Carpenter of the Cardinals is just 1-8 (-2.0 rpg, -11.9 units) since 2011 in all day games. That’s 6-14 -17.85 units since 2010; however, prior to 2010, Carpenter was 31-14 +8.5 units in day games. Our models like pitchers to regress to either league averages or their own. As teams adjust their strategies, it’s crucial to consider how individual player trends impact overall MLB team performance analytics for 2023. The data reveals that certain pitchers thrive under specific conditions, which can significantly influence a team’s success. By analyzing these trends, fans and analysts alike can gain deeper insights into the dynamics of the current season. As we delve into MLB season highlights and statistics, it’s essential to recognize how particular matchups can bring out the best or worst in players. Analyzing recent performances alongside historical data provides a clearer picture of potential outcomes. Keeping an eye on recent trends allows teams to make informed decisions during crucial games.

#024 Edwin Jackson is a nasty 5-13 (-0.8 rpg, -11.37 units) with the Washington Nationals (this season). Prior to that he was 41-38 -6.5 units in this spot so -17.87 units combined loss and nothing to really “regress” to.

#025 Jered Weaver is a rockstar as a home favorite, but on the road it is a different story; since 2006, that scenario carries a whopping -32.53 unit differential. 

#026 Zack Greinke starts on the road against his old team. He’s an ugly 15-30 (33.3%, -20.24 units, +33.4% roi to fade) SU since 2004 on the road against bad teams averaging less than a zero run per game margin. Since 2008, that is a nasty 10-24 (-1.71 rpg, 29.4%, +13.26 units to fade) on the runline. Oddly enough, the worse the opponent gets, the worse this record gets too: His runline record since 2009 is 4-16 (-2.4 rpg, 20%, +49.1% roi to fade) on the road against bad teams averaging less than -0.5 run per game margin.

#027 Stephen Strasburg is 11-0-0 (+3.64 rpg, 100.0%, +11.00 units, +94% roi) OVER the total since halfway through April in his 3rd season in the Major Leagues after a start with one or zero earned runs. His team record was just 5-6 SU (+32.7% roi to fade); looks like he’s still finding his groove and the public is over valuing his ability to stay hot and restrict the opponent’s offense. He’ll start today on the road in San Francisco against the Giants and Matt Cain for +100 and with a game lined at 7.

#028 Chris Tillman is 8-0 (+142.6% roi) SU as a road dog with the line greater than +125. I would make this one bigger but don’t like going against Justin Verlander as a home favorite.

#029 Roy Halladay, in his amazing career, is a whopping 86-38 (+1.65, 69.4%) +13.7 units at home! 

#030 Career JA Happ is 27-13-1 UNDER the total at home where the line is between 8 and 10. **That’s 9-0  in the last two seasons.

#031 Despaigne has a 6.48 ERA in his last three starts plus he’s 0-2 with and ERA of 10.24 and WHIP of 1.758 vs. the Cardinals. Lots of things stacking up here for the Cardinals.

#032 FILTER: Jered Weaver is 93-37 (71.5%, +35.09 units) at home. We have another 164-53 +84.77 System active, but for me, this is the big thing with Weaver.

#033  FILTER: Jeff Samardzija is just 22-37 -19.21 units since 2013 working on 6 or fewer days rest. 

#034 Zack Greinke is 73-18 80.2%, +43.47 units SU as a 120+ home favorite (career).

#035 The Rays are 13-28 31.7%, -24.67 units SU after 2+ games allowing 2 or fewer runs.

#036 Jered Weaver is 74-28 (72.5%!!, +26.94 units) SU at home since 2007. On the road though it is a different story: he’s just 51-51 (+1.83 units to fade).

#037 Albert Puhols is now on the DL probably out for the season; they bets seem to be split on this matchup.

#038 Ace Cole Hamels is just 8-16 (33.3%, -14.75 units, +52% roi to fade) SU since 2013 vs. sub .500 teams.

#039 Felix Hernandez is just 8-15 -9.6 units since 2011 when the total is 7 to 7.5 

#040 Chris Tillman is 63-39 (61.8%, +30.27 units) Together with Buck Showalter. Total between 7 and 10. Road dog with good starter <=1.15 WHIP In San Diego: Late season, we’re looking for a starter with 5 or fewer wins that opponent. Since 2010 this is 367-232 +60.5 units SU

#041 Carpenter had two similar games where it was 46 degrees or less. One was a series game 1 shut out 5-0 at home against the Tigers and the other was a crucial away match that ended in a tight 3-2 loss to the Orioles. These conditions can often impact player performance and strategy, which makes a historical analysis of sports betting systems particularly interesting for fans and analysts alike. Understanding how different weather conditions influence outcomes can provide deeper insights into betting trends and team dynamics.
