Milwaukee @ Cleveland props

Over the past week, Steven Kwan's exit velocity on flyballs has lowered from his seasonal EV of 87.7 mph to 83.3 mph. Despite posting a .370 wOBA this year, the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes Steven Kwan has experienced some positive variance given the .060 discrepancy between that figure and his estimated true talent wOBA of .310.

Progressive Field grades out as the #3 stadium in the majors for RHB BABIP, per the leading projection system (THE BAT). Progressive Field sits at the 7th-highest elevation among all stadiums. High elevation often leads to higher offensive output. The weather forecast calls for the 4th-best hitting weather on the slate, as it relates to temperature and humidity. The wind projects to be blowing out to CF at 15-mph in this match-up, the most-favorable of the day for hitters. Austin Hedges pulls many of his flyballs (35.7% — 91st percentile) and sets up very well considering he'll be hitting them towards the game's 3rd-shallowest LF fences in today's game.

Batting from the same side that Gavin Williams throws from, Jackson Chourio will have a disadvantage today. Jackson Chourio hits a lot of his flyballs to center field (39.5% — 94th percentile) and will have to hit them out towards baseball's 8th-deepest CF fences in today's game. Playing on the road generally lowers hitter metrics across the board due to the lack of home field advantage, which figures to be the case for Jackson Chourio in today's game. In the last two weeks, Jackson Chourio's Barrel% has experienced a negative regression, plummeting from his seasonal rate of 9.7% down to 4.7%. Jackson Chourio's ability to hit the ball at a HR-maximizing launch angle (between 23° and 34°) has decreased from last year to this one, falling from 16% to 10.3%.

Extreme groundball batters like Jose Ramirez are generally less successful against extreme groundball pitchers like Logan Henderson.
