Batter Prop Prediction 1: Randal Grichuk Under 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-120)
Newly acquired Los Angeles Angels right fielder Randal Grichuk is batting .284 on the season with 10 home runs and 30 RBI across 313 plate appearances between his time in Colorado and LA. Since joining the Angels, Grichuk has gone only 8-46 (.163) with two home runs and three RBI.
Texas Rangers veteran starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery was also acquired at the deadline (St. Louis Cardinals) and is 1-1 with a 3.00 ERA and 11 strikeouts across 12 innings since joining the team.
On the season, Scherzer is 7-10 with a 3.38 ERA and 119 strikeouts across 136 innings of work. Monty has dominated Grichuk throughout his career, holding him to 2-13 (.154) with only one home run including 2 strikeouts.
Grichuk has only cleared this total in 4 of 14 games since joining the team. We cashed on Grichuk under 0.5 in similar matchup last night and tonight we get a 1.5. Grichuk bats down in the order in the 7th or 8th hole which will limit his at bats, take his under 1.5 at -120 odds tonight in Texas.
Batter Prop Prediction 2: Ryan Mountcastle Over 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-130)
Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle is batting .271 with 15 home runs and 54 RBI across 353 plate appearances during the 2023 campaign.
Mountcastle has recorded 2+ Hits + Runs + RBI in 5 of his last 7 games and in 46 of 88 games on the season for a 52% success rate.
San Diego Padres starting pitcher Michael Wacha hasn’t pitched since July 1st due to a shoulder injury but was 8-2 with a 2.84 ERA and 73 strikeouts across 85.2 innings prior to that.
Wacha has struggled with Mountcastle throughout his career, allowing him to go 6-15 (.400) with two home runs and 5 RBI.
Mountcastle has heated up along with the weather and is batting .435 (20-46) with two home runs and 8 RBI in August.
Wacha may be more a bit more vulnerable in his first outing in more than six weeks, regardless Mountcastle has dominated the matchup and has been in outstanding recent form. Take the over 1.5 HRR on Mountcastle tonight in San Diego at -130 odds.
