Jonatan Clase (NA) Under 3.5 RBIs (-1250)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the San Francisco Giants gear up to face the Toronto Blue Jays, all eyes will be on Jonatan Clase and his quest for RBIs. However, betting on him to surpass 3.5 might be overly optimistic given recent patterns. The Giants’ pitching staff has been nothing short of impressive lately, limiting opponents to a mere .225 batting average. With ace Logan Webb on the mound, opponents are struggling to generate consistent offense; he boasts a formidable strikeout rate that could stifle Clase's chances of knocking in runs. Furthermore, Clase has shown flashes of brilliance but has been inconsistent against quality pitching, particularly in high-pressure scenarios like this matchup. With the Giants’ defense tightening up and clutch situations potentially diminishing, the under feels like the safer bet. Expect a tightly contested game where scoring opportunities will be at a premium, making the under on Clase’s RBIs a savvy play.

Nathan Lukes (NA) Under 2.5 Walks (-667)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Giants host the Blue Jays, all eyes will be on Nathan Lukes and his ability to navigate a disciplined Giants pitching staff. Over the last few weeks, San Francisco’s pitchers have been on a tear, limiting opponents' walks with a striking team rate of just 2.5 per game. The Giants have mastered the art of pounding the strike zone, and that directly impacts how often Lukes will find himself drawing free passes. Moreover, Lukes has struggled to draw walks against right-handed pitchers, and with the Giants likely sending a righty to the mound, this trend spells trouble for his walk total. The combination of a high-pressure atmosphere at Oracle Park and the Giants’ recent form suggests that keeping Lukes under 2.5 walks is a strong play. With the odds heavily favoring this outcome, it’s hard to see him breaking this trend tonight.

Brandon Valenzuela (TOR) Under 2.5 Singles (-455)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Giants host the Blue Jays on July 8, Brandon Valenzuela's recent performance suggests a solid bet on the under for his singles. The young catcher has been struggling to find consistent contact, boasting a modest batting average that puts him firmly in the crosshairs of this under bet. Over the past few weeks, he’s faced elite pitching, and with the Giants’ formidable rotation on the mound, he’s likely to see some tough offerings that could keep his hits at bay. Moreover, Valenzuela's plate discipline has been tested lately, leading to an uptick in strikeouts. The Giants' defense, particularly at home, has been sharp, making it difficult for opponents to string together hits. With the numbers favoring the under and Valenzuela's current form, betting on him to stay below 2.5 singles seems like an astute play in this matchup.
