Rhys Hoskins (MIL) Under 0.5 Singles (-238)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Guardians gear up to host the Cubs, all eyes will be on Rhys Hoskins, but don’t expect him to pile on the singles today. Despite his solid presence in the lineup, he's been mired in a slump lately, hitting just .205 over his last ten games. The Cubs' pitching staff has been sharp, especially their ace, who thrives in keeping hitters like Hoskins in check, boasting an impressive 2.80 ERA against right-handers this season.
Moreover, the Guardians' offense has been relatively quiet, averaging just 3.1 runs per game in their last series. Given these trends and the fact that Hoskins is projected for less than a single hit, taking the under on his singles seems prudent. With a 70.4% implied probability backing this wager, it’s a savvy play as we dive into this matchup at Progressive Field.
