Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
The bet on Michael King for Over 4.5 in the Pitcher Strikeouts market is a strong choice based on his recent overall performance. In his last five games, King has averaged 6.2 strikeouts, which is significantly higher than the line of 4.5. Additionally, he has been pitching an average of 5.3 innings, giving him ample opportunities to achieve more strikeouts. His overall average outs at 16.8 further supports this. Even though his away game and against opponent averages are lower, his current overall hit streak of 2 games indicates he is in good form. Therefore, despite his weaker away and opponent-specific performance, his overall recent form suggests he is likely to exceed 4.5 strikeouts.

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
Betting on Bryson Stott for Over 0.5 in the Batter Hits market is a strong choice due to his consistent performance, particularly in away games. His overall current hit streak stands at nine, indicating a solid form. Moreover, his away hit streak is at three, suggesting his performance doesn't significantly drop when playing outside home territory. His overall average hits in the last five games is 1.8, well above the line of 0.5. Although his average hits drop slightly in away games to 1.2, it's still more than double the betting line. Additionally, his plate appearances (PA) average remains high, with 5.2 overall and 4.8 in away games. This indicates that he frequently gets the opportunity to hit, which, combined with his current form, makes it likely for him to score over 0.5 hits in the upcoming game.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
Freddie Freeman's recent performance data suggests that betting on him for under 1.5 in the Batter Singles market is a good choice. His average for the last five overall singles is 0, indicating a low likelihood of him hitting more than one single in the upcoming game. Even when considering his home game statistics, his average for the last five home singles is only 0.8. Furthermore, when facing the Phillies, his average for the last five singles drops to 0.6. Despite his current hit streak, his overall batting average remains low, with only 0.8 hits overall and 1.4 hits at home games. This data suggests that Freeman is not likely to hit more than 1.5 singles in the game against the Phillies.

When facing the San Francisco Giants, he averages 1 hit, further supporting this bet. Additionally, Marte is on a hit streak, both overall and at home, with three consecutive games of getting a hit.

Freddie Freeman (LAD) Under 1.5 Hits (-143)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The bet on Freddie Freeman to have under 1.5 hits in the upcoming Dodgers vs Phillies game is rooted in his recent performance data. Freeman's last five games show an average of 0.8 hits, falling well below the line of 1.5. This average holds up against the Phillies specifically, with Freeman again averaging 0.8 hits in his last five encounters with them. Even when playing at home, where Freeman's performance improves, his average hits only rise to 1.4, still under the bet line. Furthermore, his plate appearances (PA) do not significantly increase his chances of surpassing the line, with averages of 4.2 overall, 4 against the Phillies, and 4.4 at home. Despite his current hit streaks, the averages suggest that it's unlikely for Freeman to achieve more than 1.5 hits in the upcoming game, making this under bet a statistically sound choice.
