high/low

Hot and humid temperatures and a taller Atlanta baseball stadium than you might think are factors here. Braves’ home games have over 33 hits in their last 54 games (+11.05 units, 19% ROI).

Think the Yankees offense is underestimated by the number of surfaces. And New York was hurled to the best side of platoon numbers when facing left-handers (.778 OPS).

Schmidt’s latest results may have caused some gamblers to overestimate his total, and Fried isn’t fully versed about his patience. There are also some faded New York copycats, a unit that has benefited from the .267 BABIP this season.

The weather forecast calls for hot, humid and windy conditions.
