Tyler Freeman (CLE) Under 2.5 Hits (-208)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As we dive into the matchup between the Dodgers and Rockies, Tyler Freeman’s recent performance points toward a solid 'under' play for his hits total of 2.5. Freeman has faced some tough left-handed pitching lately, and the Rockies' starter has been particularly effective against righties. With a batting average that’s dipped to around .230 in his last several outings, he’s finding it hard to make consistent contact.
Moreover, the Dodgers' lineup is stacked, meaning Freeman often finds himself lower in the batting order, limiting his opportunities. With the Rockies’ recent struggles on the road and the Dodgers’ strong home defense, it seems likely he’ll be challenged to even reach two hits. Given Freeman’s current trend and the matchup dynamics, betting on him to stay under 2.5 hits feels like a savvy approach in this Thursday showdown.
