Detroit Tigers vs Pittsburgh Pirates: Kevin McGonigle Over 1.5 Batter - Runs Scored (+1000)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
Kevin McGonigle has been hitting the ball well lately, averaging nearly two hits per game in his last three outings. He often strikes the ball with great power and at a good angle, making him a real threat at the plate. With Detroit Tigers playing at home, they'll want to score as many runs as possible against the Pittsburgh Pirates, who have struggled to keep runs off the board lately.
Betting on McGonigle to score over 1.5 runs is a bit of a gamble, but the odds are tempting. The biggest risk here is that the Pirates' starting pitcher has been pretty solid, allowing fewer runs than most. Still, with McGonigle's recent form, he could surprise us and make a difference in this game.
