Happy Friday … let’s have ourselves a BANGER of a weekend!!!
Let’s dive into the plays for Friday, August 8th. Reminder SIGN UP FOR PREMIUM (if ya ain’t already) to get the full list.
✅ TOP PICKS ✅
Nick Kurtz (ATH) vs. Tomoyuki Sugano [GRADE: A]
H/AB | AVG | wOBA | ISO | ExitVelo | HardHit% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
19-30 | .633 | .619 | .700 | 101.3 | 87.5% |
Top play of the day for sure with Kurtz absolutely destroying the pitch mix. I think JJ Bleday is worth a sprinkle as well. Low sample size, but he’s been hot since he returned to the team.
TARGET MARKETS: H+R+R/TB (1u), HR (0.3u)
Quick note on the Target Markets section: These are the markets I’m going to be line/promo shopping for when the markets open up. Sometimes I will avoid them if they’re too juicy or the odds are just garbage (-130 and worse). Unit recommendation is a general guideline, but could change based on value. Also … feel free to visit GAMBLING SCHOOL 101 for a breakdown of all markets, bankroll, risk management and more
Kerry Carpenter / Gleyber Torres (DET) vs. Kyle Hendricks [GRADE: A]
H/AB | AVG | wOBA | ISO | ExitVelo | HardHit% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
5-8 | .625 | .805 | .875 | 96.7 | 71.43% |
Carpenter has been raking since he returned from the IL, and while this is a tiny sample I went back L90 as well and things were equally as strong. Gleyber worth consideration, but Carpenter definitely first choice.
TARGET MARKETS: H+R+R/TB/singles (0.7u-1u), HR (0.2-0.3u)
OK friends … this is the part of the email where we move on to the PREMIUM plays. So here comes THE DREADED PAYWALL!!!!! AHHHHH!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
