Tommy Edman (NA) Under 1.5 Doubles (-2000)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Dodgers welcome the Diamondbacks this Sunday, all eyes will be on Tommy Edman and his quest for extra-base hits. While Edman is certainly capable, recent trends suggest he might struggle to stretch one into a double against an imposing Dodgers pitching staff. The Los Angeles rotation has been nearly untouchable at home, boasting a stingy WHIP and limiting opponents to a low batting average on balls in play.
Edman, despite his talent, has seen his doubles production dip recently, averaging less than one double per game against quality arms. With the Dodgers' elite defense backing their starters, the odds tilt further in favor of the Under 1.5 doubles. When you combine Edman’s recent performance with the Dodgers' formidable home advantage, this bet aligns perfectly with the current landscape. It’s a scenario where the numbers meet the narrative – and the Under seems like a smart play.
