Miguel Andujar (ATH) Under 1.5 Total Bases (-204)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Braves host the Padres, all eyes might be on the big bats, but let's take a closer look at Miguel Andujar. While he’s a talented player, recent trends suggest he could struggle to find success against what’s shaping up to be a dominant Braves pitching staff.
Atlanta's arms have been lights out at home, allowing a mere .215 batting average against, which makes it tough for anyone to rack up extra bases, let alone someone like Andujar, who tends to be hit-or-miss lately. Facing the likes of Max Fried, who thrives on keeping hitters off balance, it’s hard to envision Andujar breaking through for more than one total base tonight.
With a projected output of just under one total base, the under on 1.5 seems prudent. The odds favor a quiet night for Andujar, making this a compelling play in a matchup where runs may be hard to come by.
