Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Los Angeles Dodgers
- Leg 1: Ketel Marte Over 1.5 Total Bases (-110)
- Leg 2: Emmet Sheehan Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-125)
- Leg 3: Andy Pages Over 1.5 Total Bases (-105)
The Los Angeles Dodgers will call on Emmet Sheehan for the final game of the first half. Sheehan has struggled lately, allowing a .232 ISO and a wOBA of .355 to his last 81 batters. Lefties have hit a .250 ISO and a wOBA of .367, with 28% of fly balls. That should help Ketel Marte, who has a .205 ISO and a .347 wOBA against his last 89 righties as a left-handed batter.
Additionally, the Diamondbacks’ projected lineup has struck out just 18.4% of the time against righties over the last month. Even with a high strikeout rate of 27.2% over the last 30 days, it might be hard to find six strikeouts for Sheehan.
Finally, Mitch Bratt will counter for the Diamondbacks. The lefty has allowed a .352 wOBA to his first 10 righties faced. I’ll take my chances with Andy Pages, who has a .205 ISO and a wOBA of .411 against his last 43 lefties.
Parlay Odds: +517
Toronto Blue Jays vs. San Diego Padres
- Leg 1: German Marquez Under 3.5 Strikeouts (+132)
- Leg 2: Fernando Tatis Jr. Over 1.5 Total Bases (-105)
- Leg 3: Manny Machado Over 1.5 Total Bases (+125)
The San Diego Padres are expected to pitch German Marquez today. The righty has struck out just 15.2% of batters over the last month and has added just 14.8% of strikeouts this season. Ultimately, the Blue Jays have combined to strike out just 17.4% of the time against righties and only have three real targets for strikeouts.
On the flip side, it’ll be Kevin Gausman for the Blue Jays on the mound. The right-handed pitcher has allowed his last 50 righties to post a .356 ISO and a .459 wOBA, despite being a righty himself. He’s set to take on righties like Manny Machado and Fernando Tatis Jr., who have hit right-handed pitchers well over the last 30 days.
Machado has added a .352 ISO and a wOBA of .415 against his last 86 righties, while Tatis has a .158 ISO and a wOBA of .342. Those two look great on paper in their righty vs. righty matchups.
