All eyes and money will be on the Celtics and the matchups/props that almost look guaranteed...RJ Barrett, especially when it comes to his assist numbers, maybe not so much. The line is set at 4.5 assists and with Quickley out... It can happen...
José Berríos is heading into a storm against the red-hot Phillies, José Berríos, stepping onto the mound with a daunting task ahead, is about to face one of Major League Baseball's most formidable lineups: the Philadelphia Phillies. While the air might be filled with anticipation, a deep dive into the numbers reveals a clear message for those looking to place their bets wisely. First, a glance at Berríos' stats reveals a concerning trend for the pitcher: a hard-hit percentage (HH%) sitting at a staggering 50%. For those new to the analytics game, HH% measures how often a pitcher allows batted balls with an exit velocity of 95 mph or higher. A rate as high as 50% means Berríos is frequently serving up the baseball on a silver platter for hitters, making it easier for them to find gaps or even send the ball sailing over the fence. Digging deeper, José's expected weighted on-base average (xwOBA) stands at .348, paired with an expected slugging percentage (xSLG) of .457. These figures are particularly alarming when considering xwOBA and xSLG are predictive metrics, indicating how a player should perform based on factors like launch angle and exit velocity, independent of the defense's actions. …

Musgrove's ERA is sitting uncomfortably at 6.94, with a staggering 9 home runs allowed so far this season. For those not in the know, ERA, or Earned Run Average, tells us the average number of earned runs a pitcher allows per nine innings. Let's just say, in Musgrove's case, it's more like Earned Run Abundance. But wait, there's more. Musgrove's barrel percentage is at 11.6%. For the uninitiated, barrel percentage is a stat that combines exit velocity and launch angle to determine how often a batter gets that sweet, sweet spot on the ball. Essentially, Musgrove is turning opposing batters into Babe Ruth reincarnated more often than he'd like. Now, let's talk about the Reds. They're not just any team; they're a team that knows how to capitalize on a pitcher's weaknesses. The Reds have hitters …
