The legs, one at a time
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Athletics host the Twins, all eyes will be on Tommy White, but betting on him to clear 1.5 hits might be a stretch. White has faced a steep learning curve lately, hitting just.220 over the last two weeks. The Twins' pitching staff, particularly with their current starter on the mound, has been a tough nut to crack. They boast an impressive 3.40 ERA against righties, making it challenging for hitters like White to find their rhythm. Moreover, the A's lineup has struggled to generate consistent offense, averaging only 3.5 runs per game lately. This lack of run support puts extra pressure on White to deliver in crucial moments, but with a defense that excels in limiting hits, he could be in for a long night. Given these trends, betting on White to stay under 1.5 hits seems like a savvy move in this matchup.
Josh Bell (WSN) Under 1.5 Hits (-250)

As the Athletics prepare to take on the Twins, all eyes should be on Josh Bell's batting performance. While Bell has shown flashes of brilliance this season, he's been struggling lately, hitting just.205 over his last 15 games. Facing off against the Twins' ace, who boasts a remarkable 2.95 ERA, Bell could find himself in a tough spot. Moreover, the Twins have been adept at neutralizing opponents’ power, limiting hitters to an average of just 0.8 hits per game over their last series. With Bell's recent form and the strong pitching he’ll encounter, betting on him to stay under 1.5 hits seems wise. Given the stats and trends, it feels like a perfect storm for Bell to have a quiet outing at the plate, making the 'Under' a savvy move for today's matchup.
Jonah Heim (ATH) Under 1.5 Total Bases (-161)

As the Athletics host the Twins, all eyes will be on Jonah Heim, who’s been struggling to find his groove at the plate lately. With the A's facing Minnesota’s lefty ace, the matchup doesn’t favor Heim’s power. He’s managed to clear 1.5 total bases in only a fraction of recent games, and with the Twins' pitching staff boasting a solid strikeout rate, he could be in for a challenging evening. Consider that Heim has recorded just a handful of hits against left-handed pitching this season, and you get a clearer picture of why taking the ‘Under’ here makes sense. The A’s lineup has been inconsistent, and with the Twins’ strong defense, opportunities for Heim to rack up extra bases may be limited. Given these factors, the case for going under 1.5 total bases feels compelling as Heim continues to search for his rhythm at the plate.
