Brice Turang (MIL) Under 1.5 Hits (-256)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Cardinals welcome the Brewers to town, all eyes will be on Brice Turang, but tonight might not be his night. Turang has been struggling at the plate recently, with a batting average that has dipped below .220 over the last couple of weeks. He’s facing a Cardinals pitching staff that’s been on fire, particularly their starter, whose strikeout rate is well above the league average.
To add to the challenge, Turang's splits against right-handed pitchers show he’s having a tough time making solid contact. The Brewers are also in a bit of a funk offensively, which could put more pressure on him to perform against a disciplined St. Louis defense. Given the trends and the matchup dynamics, betting on Turang to stay under 1.5 hits feels like a smart play. Look for him to struggle to find his rhythm in this one.
