Jazz Chisholm Over 0.5 Home Runs (+700)

By Grant Neiffer

If you have Bally Bet, I absolutely love this bet at +850, but it still offers great value at +700 at most other sites. The home run lines are way off for this game and Jazz Chisholm gets a great matchup vs. Tomoyuki Sugano, who grades out as a well-above-average matchup for lefty power.

The wind is blowing out today and the temperature should be in the mid 70s during the game. Nothing about this matchup is bad and Chisholm is priced like this is a terrible matchup. I have the true odds at close to +500, making this a fantastic EV bet.

Pick: Jazz Chisholm Over 0.5 Home Runs (+700)

Tomoyuki Sugano Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-130)

By Prop Model

Tomoyuki Sugano's strikeouts prop looks like a strong wager based on the current data. The line of 3.5 compares favorably based on our MLB simulations. The prop projects to hit 67.0% of the time based on the assumptions, and that represents a 10.48% edge. You can find all prop bet evaluations in ParlayIQ.

Pick: Tomoyuki Sugano Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-130)

Patrick Corbin Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-115)

By Charlie Wright

Patrick Corbin burned me against the Angels, racking up six strikeouts over 5 1/3 innings. He faced the Athletics last time out and finished with just four strikeouts. Corbin has survived through three starts, but the underlying metrics are weak and facing a team in back-to-back outings typically favors the offense.
