Hitter Prop Prediction 1: Andrew McCutchen Under 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-120)

Pittsburgh Pirates veteran designated hitter and outfielder Andrew McCutchen is batting .258 on the season with 10 home runs and 30 RBI across 380 plate appearances.

He has fallen short of recording 2+ Hits + Runs + RBI in 8 of his last 10 games and 50 of 91 games on the season for a 56% success rate to the under.

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Max Fried is 3-1 thus far in 2023 with a 1.69 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 33 strikeouts across 32 innings of work.

Fried was lights out in his first start since a three-month stint on the injured list with six scoreless innings against a red-hot Chicago Cubs offense.

Fried has gotten the better of McCutchen throughout his career, holding him to only 2-15 with no extra-base hits and 6 strikeouts.

When Fried does leave the game, he will be backed by a bullpen that ranks 3rd in ERA and 2nd in WHIP. McCutchen is locked into a 2-14 cold streak and has consistently struggled with Fried on the mound. Take his under 1.5 HRR at a reasonable price of -120.

Hitter Prop Prediction 2: Mookie Betts Over 2.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (+120)

Los Angeles Dodgers right fielder Mookie Betts is in the midst of an MVP-caliber campaign with a .286 batting average, 31 home runs and 77 RBI across 493 plate appearances.

Betts also has 93 runs and 8 stolen bases to go along with a robust .970 OPS. He has been on fire in August, going 13-34 (.382) with 4 home runs and 9 RBI while clearing 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBI in 7 of his last 8 games.

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Merrill Kelly is having a great season with a 9-5 record, 3.21 ERA and 118 strikeouts across 112 innings pitched.

However, Betts has gotten the better of him throughout his career, going 7-27 with three home runs and a double.

The Dodgers lineup has been an absolute juggernaut with 64 runs scored across their last 8 games. Betts has been a major part of that as the team’s catalyst as the lead-off hitter.

He has thrived against Kelly and will be guaranteed a full nine innings of at-bats on the road, making an over 2.5 HRR attractive at +120 odds.
