Betting on baseball can be an arduous task.
There is an overwhelming amount of data to help in your day-to-day evaluations of players and teams, and because of that, certain all-encompassing metrics have been popularized.
Many bettors consult those statistics on a daily basis, but to truly evaluate a player or team it’s important to understand what goes into those numbers. The number tying both of those aforementioned metrics together is Weighted On Base Average, or wOBA for short. That is helpful when doing a quick evaluation of a pitcher’s skills, but when it comes to betting you have to take matchups into account.If a pitcher has a strikeout rate well above average, his expected stats aren’t going to matter quite as much with fewer balls in play.
