Francisco Lindor (NYM) Under 1.5 Total Bases (-189)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Philadelphia Phillies take on the New York Mets, all eyes will be on Francisco Lindor, but backing him to go over 1.5 total bases feels like a risky play. Lindor has been solid this season, yet recent trends suggest he might struggle against the Phillies' ace. The right-hander has been adept at limiting opposing batters, holding them to a low on-base percentage.
In their last few encounters, Lindor has found it tough to make significant impacts, often getting caught in tough at-bats against the Phillies' bullpen that has been surprisingly effective lately. Factor in the Mets' inconsistent offensive performance, and it paints a picture of Lindor potentially coming in under that 1.5 mark. Given the circumstances, taking the under on his total bases feels like a savvy move with high potential for success.
