Heliot Ramos (SFG) Under 3.5 RBIs (-2500)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Giants host the Blue Jays, Heliot Ramos finds himself in a challenging spot for RBIs. While he’s shown flashes of brilliance, his recent form suggests he might struggle to cross that 3.5 threshold tonight. The Blue Jays' pitching has been formidable lately, with a rotation that has kept opposing batsmen in check. They boast an impressive strikeout rate, which could spell trouble for Ramos, especially considering he’s been prone to swings-and-misses against quality arms. On the other side, the Giants’ lineup has had a few inconsistencies, limiting the opportunities for Ramos to drive in runs. The last few matchups have seen Ramos falling short of that number, and with the pressure of a well-rounded Jays bullpen looming, it’s hard to envision him breaking through for four RBIs tonight. With the stakes high and the odds favoring the under, it feels like a safe bet to expect Ramos to stay under that line.

Rafael Devers (BOS) Under 2.5 Walks (-833)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Giants welcome the Blue Jays to Oracle Park, all eyes will be on Rafael Devers, but betting on him to walk more than twice might be a stretch. Let’s look at his recent performance: Devers has been swinging aggressively, racking up a low walk rate this season. With the Giants' pitching staff boasting a solid strikeout rate, they’re known for keeping hitters off balance, which likely means Devers will be swinging more than waiting for his pitch. Additionally, he’s facing a formidable lefty, whose ability to command the strike zone has been impressive lately. The matchup screams for an aggressive approach from Devers, and his recent history against left-handers shows he often opts to put the ball in play rather than take the walk. With the odds stacked against him reaching that 2.5 mark, the smart play here is to back the under.

Willy Adames (MIL) Under 2.5 Walks (-1429)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Giants gear up to face the Blue Jays, all eyes will be on Willy Adames and his propensity for drawing walks. However, a closer look at recent trends reveals a compelling case for the 'Under 2.5' on his walks today. Adames has been facing a Giants pitching staff that's been stingy in this department, allowing the fewest walks in the league lately. Moreover, Adames himself has struggled to find his rhythm at the plate against right-handed pitchers, and with San Francisco's ace on the mound, he may find it even tougher to get on base via the free pass. The Giants are in a must-win mindset, and their pitchers have been dialed in, making it unlikely that Adames will see more than two walks. Given these factors, wagering on the 'Under' here feels like a savvy play as the game unfolds.
