Jackson Chourio (NA) Under 1.5 Hits (-233)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Brewers prepare to face off against the Rockies, the spotlight shines on Jackson Chourio, who hasn’t quite found his groove against right-handed pitchers lately. Over the past few weeks, he’s been struggling, posting a mere .215 batting average against righties, which doesn’t bode well against Colorado's ace, who has been tough to crack. Moreover, the Rockies' bullpen has tightened up significantly, holding opponents to a low batting average in late-game situations. Milwaukee's lineup, while formidable overall, has shown a tendency to rely heavily on power rather than consistent contact, which could hinder Chourio's chances of racking up hits. With the odds leaning towards the 'Under' for his hits at 1.5, it feels like a smart move to bet against him breaking through, especially given the recent trends in his performance and the Rockies' ability to stifle hitters.

William Contreras (MIL) Under 1.5 Hits (-250)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Brewers gear up to host the Rockies, all eyes should be on William Contreras, particularly when it comes to his ability to find hits against Colorado's pitching staff. Despite his talent, Contreras has struggled a bit at the plate lately, managing just a .218 average over the last two weeks. With Rockies starter Kyle Freeland taking the mound, who has kept left-handed batters in check, the odds seem to favor the 'Under' on hits. Freeland’s recent form has been impressive, limiting opponents to a mere .236 average, which should further stifle Contreras' chances. The Brewers also boast a strong bullpen, making it tough for any batter to find consistent success late in the game. Considering these factors, betting on Contreras to finish with under 1.5 hits feels like a savvy play for this matchup.

Braxton Fulford (NA) Under 0.5 Hits (-145)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Brewers gear up to face the Rockies, all eyes should be on Braxton Fulford. While he has shown flashes of promise, recent trends suggest he may struggle to find success against Milwaukee's pitching. The Brewers' starters have been nothing short of impressive, striking out batters at an elevated rate, particularly in the last month. Fulford, who has been plagued by inconsistent contact, might find himself overmatched against a lineup that excels at exploiting weaknesses. Moreover, the Rockies' offense has been in a tailspin away from Coors Field, struggling to generate runs and hits on the road. With the Brewers’ bullpen also stepping up, holding opponents to a mere .220 batting average lately, it’s reasonable to expect Fulford to come up empty in this matchup. Betting on Fulford to stay under 0.5 hits feels like a smart play, given the current dynamics on the diamond.
