Brice Turang (MIL) Under 1.5 Hits (-222)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Red Sox host the Brewers, all eyes will be on Brice Turang, who’s been struggling to find his rhythm at the plate. With only a handful of hits in the early season, his average sits well below expectations. The Red Sox have a potent lineup, but they’re facing Brewers pitching that has surprisingly held its own, particularly with their strikeout rates.
Turang’s recent performances suggest he may have a tough time navigating against Boston’s top-tier arms. The under on his hits is bolstered by the fact that he’s been increasingly vulnerable, especially against right-handed sluggers—a trait that the Red Sox can exploit. Given the model's prediction of just 0.57 hits for Turang, it seems prudent to lean towards the under here. With an implied probability of 69%, it’s clear the odds are stacked against him today. Expect a low-output night for the young infielder.
