ET Mon-Fri podcast out no later than Noon PT / 3 p.m. Mon-Sat article out no later than 11 a.m. Posting and grading with odds from DraftKings, but SHOP AROUND for the best odds all favorites X units to win 1 unit dogs 1 unit to win X units unless specified As far as yesterday, no blood drawn, as a favorite won and a dog lost, so nothing really to report on the picks. I’ll be monitoring all of these things closely and each day gives us a new data point to analyze. Thumbs down to Boston’s Reese McGuire, who was 0-for-5 in throwing out Orioles runners and also had two wild pitches. Shout-out to Willson Contreras (who left hurt for the Cardinals) and Austin Hedges,who had the only caught stealings of the day. That was something we expected to happen and it absolutely did. That may be why we saw totals go 8-7 to the over also, hitters struck out 26.9% of the time with RISP and 26.2% overall.īase stealers started with a bang, going 21-of-23 on Opening Day. 318 BABIP, so down from the overall numbers.
Now, that’s just one day worth of sample size and teams will adjust defensively, but that’s a huge number. I ran a search at, which is where the publicly-available Statcast data is housed on the internet, and found that ground ball batting average was up 26 points from 2022 at. Per FG, the Opening Day BABIP on April 7 last year was. Per FanGraphs, yesterday’s batting average on balls in play (BABIP) was. That’s okay, because we have a lot to think about and analyze from Opening Day. We go from 15 games on Thursday to just five games on Friday, as Major League Baseball schedule makers worked in a bad-weather day for the teams that ran the risk of some adverse conditions.
