George Springer (TOR) Under 1.5 Total Bases (-200)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Toronto Blue Jays gear up to face the Chicago White Sox, all eyes will be on George Springer, but it might be wise to temper expectations regarding his total bases. Despite his explosive potential, Springer has encountered a rough patch lately, hitting just .220 over the last two weeks. The White Sox will send out a pitcher who has been surprisingly effective against right-handed hitters, boasting a sub-3.50 ERA in his last few starts.
Additionally, the Blue Jays' lineup has shown signs of inconsistency, and with the White Sox's bullpen ranked among the top in strikeouts this season, scoring opportunities could be limited. Considering these trends, betting on Springer to go under 1.5 total bases seems reasonable. He’s liable to face a steady diet of quality pitches, making it a tall order for him to clear that threshold today.
