MLB Player Prop Bet Odds, Picks & Predictions: Phillies vs. Diamondbacks
Jose Urena: o/u 5.5 Hits Allowed
Jose Urena has the tall task of going into Atlanta and taking on one of the best lineups in baseball.
Braves Batting vs RHP 2022 Season:
wRC+ 9th
OBP% 16th
ISO 3rd
wOBA 6th
Over their last six games, the Braves are averaging 6.83 runs per game.
The Pick: o5.5 Hits Allowed (-114 DraftKings)
Max Fried: o/u 5.5 Strikeouts
I like taking advantage of this Rockies lineup away from Coors Field. When the Rockies play at home, their K% is 19%, the 3rd best in baseball. But, when they leave Coors Field, their K% jumps to 22%, ranking 16th.
Over Fried’s last seven home starts, he has averaged 6.42 strikeouts per start.
The Pick: o5.5 Strikeouts (+102 DraftKings)
What is a Moneyline Bet?
A moneyline bet involves choosing which team you believe will win a specific matchup. The moneyline favorite carries a minus designation, like -130. This means that you need to wager $130 to earn a $100 profit. Conversely, the underdog carries a plus designation, like +110. This means that you win $110 in profit on a $100 bet.
What is Betting Against the Spread?
Betting “against the spread†refers to the act of choosing the winning team based on a numeric handicap placed on the team that oddsmakers believe is superior, rather than picking the outright winner. For example, if the Rams face the Bengals, and oddsmakers set the spread at Rams -3.5, you would need Los Angeles to win by 4 or more points in order to cash your Rams bet.
What is an Over/Under Bet?
Over/Under is a wager based on how many points you think will be scored in a specific game. Oddsmakers set the total, and bettors decide whether the final score will be higher or lower than that number. If an Over/Under is set at 44.5 points and you bet Over, you will need the combined score of both teams to be 45 points or higher to win your bet.
