The legs, one at a time

Bo Bichette (NYM) Under 1.5 Hits (-270)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Mets host the Padres on August 17, eyes will be on Bo Bichette, but betting the under on his hits feels like the savvy play here. Bichette has recently struggled against right-handed pitching, and with the Mets sending a solid righty to the mound, he might find it difficult to make solid contact. Over the last few weeks, he’s been hitting just.220 against righties, a stark contrast to his overall average. Moreover, the Padres' bullpen has tightened up, allowing fewer than three runs per game over their last ten outings. The pressure is on, and the tension of a tight race could further stymie Bichette's chances. With the under set at 1.5 hits, there's a compelling case that he’ll be stifled tonight. Given the trends and matchups, betting the under is a prudent approach to take in this matchup.

Carson Benge Under 1.5 Total Bases (-200)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Mets gear up to host the Padres, all eyes will be on Carson Benge. While he’s shown flashes of brilliance this season, recent trends point to a challenging evening ahead against New York’s pitching staff. The Mets' rotation has been particularly stingy at home, boasting a solid ERA that has kept opposing batters in check. Benge, for his part, has struggled to find his rhythm lately, managing just a handful of multi-base hits in his last few games. With the Mets' defense backing up their pitcher, expect them to capitalize on any weaknesses. The odds favor the Under on Benge's total bases, and given the circumstances, it feels like the right call. The combination of the Mets' home-field advantage and Benge's recent inconsistency paints a compelling picture for an evening where he might find himself stifled at the plate.

Francisco Lindor (NYM) Under 1.5 Total Bases (-172)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As we gear up for this intriguing matchup between the Mets and Padres, eyes should be on Francisco Lindor. While he’s flashed brilliance at times this season, the recent trends suggest a different narrative. Lindor has been quiet at the plate lately, with just one hit in his last three outings against right-handed pitchers, and the Padres’ Blake Snell is no slouch on the mound. Snell has been dealing, holding opponents to a mere.200 batting average over his last five starts. The Mets have struggled to consistently generate offense, particularly against high-caliber lefties like Snell. With Lindor’s recent slump and the Padres’ strong pitching form, it’s reasonable to expect him to stay under 1.5 total bases in this one. The combination of Lindor’s current form and Snell’s dominant presence on the mound makes the 'Under' a compelling play.
