Texas Rangers vs Toronto Blue Jays: Kazuma Okamoto Over 1.5 Batter - Hits + Runs + RBIs (+105)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing
Kazuma Okamoto has been pretty steady at the plate lately, and going against the Toronto Blue Jays could work in his favor. The Blue Jays have struggled against left-handed pitchers, hitting lower than the league average. Meanwhile, Okamoto has shown he can get on base and create scoring chances. He averages a decent number of at-bats and has a good chance to get hits and help his team.
This matchup is tight, with both teams winning about half their recent games. However, the Blue Jays' trouble against lefties makes me feel better about Okamoto's chances. The biggest risk is how well the Blue Jays' pitching can perform, but Okamoto has the skills to shine here. I like him to go over 1.5 hits, runs, and RBIs today.
