Hitter Prop Prediction 1: Enrique Hernandez Over 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-120)
Newly acquired Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Enrique Hernandez is only batting .234 on the season with seven home runs and 39 RBI across 364 plate appearances.
However, he is 13-41 (.317) with one home run and eight RBI in 11 games since joining the team. Hernandez has cleared 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBI in 7 of his last 8 games while driving in a run in four straight games.
Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Ty Blach has been moved into the starting rotation and has a 1-1 record with a 4.85 ERA across 26 innings of work. Hernandez is familiar with Blach and is only 5-21 (.238) with one home run against him.
However, Blach has completed five innings only once this season and will be backed by a bullpen that ranks 27th with a 4.84 ERA. As a team, the Dodgers rank top-3 in wOBA, wRC+ and ISO against left-handed pitching on the season.
Kike is no different and he will have plenty of RBI and run scoring opportunities against a vulnerable opponent. Take the over 1.5 HRR with reasonable juice set at -120.
Hitter Prop Prediction 2: Alec Bohm Over 2.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (+100)
Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Alec Bohm is batting .293 on the season with 12 home runs and 73 RBI across 414 plate appearances.
Bohm has heated up along with the weather and is batting .353 in August with two home runs and 7 RBI across 35 plate appearances. Even with the line set at 2.5, he has cleared his Hits + Runs + RBI line in 7 of his last 10 games.
Washington Nationals starting pitcher Patrick Corbin is 7-11 on the season with a bloated 5.03 ERA & 1.50 WHIP across 132.1 innings of work. Corbin has been hit hard in his last three outings, allowing 13 runs on 20 hits including six home runs across 18.1 innings pitched.
Bohm has feasted on Corbin, going 7-20 (.350) with two home runs and two doubles. Corbin will be backed by a bullpen that ranks 28th with a 5.06 ERA.
There are some storms projected in Philadelphia that could lead to a delay but according to Ballpark Pal on Twitter there will be a 19% home run boost based on the conditions at Citizens Bank Park tonight.
Bohm has been in the zone and is facing a vulnerable starting pitcher, making him worth an over 2.5 HRR at +100 odds.
