@FastMoneyLabs' MLB Best Bet: Dodgers @ Pirates - 4/26

Testing a new market here. Smells like money. Only one way to find out right?

The Dodgers’ rookie of the year candidate / rising star is averaging 2.5 hits + runs + RBI. A handful of huge games skew the average but importantly: the 1.5 line is cashing > 50% when starting.

I view Outman as the perfect lab rat for this H+R+R prop, because the dude’s filling the stat sheet in all 3 categories (1.04 hits, 0.63 runs, 0.79 RBI)! That’s healthy balance — with most of the damage coming vs. Righties. He’s slashing 0.323/0.371/0.738 vs. RHP like PIT starter Roansy Contreras; while Contreras is getting hit harder vs. Lefties like Outman this season.

2 of LAD’s top 4 bats are OUT of the lineup with Will Smith in concussion protocol and Max Muncy on the paternity list. The circumstance has boosted Outman’s role, and the kid’s capitalizing! Tonight’s lineup’s still pending, but I trust he’ll be in the top 5! If I’m right (fingers crossed!) — Look for the kid to stay hot and record at least 2 hits + runs + RBI (-120 Draftkings or MGM).

The Pick: James Outman O1.5 Hits + Runs + RBI (-120)
