Mickey Moniak (COL) Under 1.5 Hits (-250)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Colorado Rockies host the Cincinnati Reds on July 18, keep an eye on Mickey Moniak. While he has shown flashes of brilliance, recent trends suggest that he might struggle to find his rhythm at Coors Field today. The Rockies’ pitching staff has tightened up, especially against left-handed hitters, and Moniak, despite a few standout performances, is batting only .235 against southpaws this season.
Adding to the complexity, the Reds' bullpen has proven resilient, posting a solid WHIP of 1.23 over the last month, making it tough for hitters to get on base. With Moniak projected to record just 0.31 hits, the under on 1.5 hits feels like a savvy play. Expect a low-scoring affair where every hit counts, and Moniak might just fall short in this matchup.
