Today’s Best MLB Player Props & Bets: Padres vs. Brewers
Here are the best MLB player prop bets for today’s game Padres vs. Brewers.
San Diego Padres vs. Milwaukee Brewers
In his career, Dustin May has held the Padres to a .217 batting average and just 13 RBI in 164 plate appearances. However, May has not been himself lately, and I fully expect him to struggle as the Padres try to avoid elimination.
Since joining the Brewers, May has allowed 37 hits, 15 walks and 23 earned runs in just 10 appearances. That's an average of 7.5 combined hits + walks + earned runs allowed per appearance.
The only real concern with this prop is that May hasn't been pitching very deep into games. He's pitched three innings or fewer in three consecutive appearances, and 4.1 innings or fewer in seven of his last eight. However, this over would still have hit in two of his last three games and in seven of the nine games in which he's pitched at least one inning with the Brewers. One of those seven contests is against the Padres.
Dustin May Over 5.5 Hits + Walks + Earned Runs Allowed (+104)
