Corbin Burnes will be on the mound for the Brew Crew. While he is one of the league's best, I will be targeting him here in favor of one of the leagueβs best hitters.Β
Paul Goldschmidt is in the midst of an incredible stretch. He is 39/94 this month!! He is currently batting .415 in May with 21 extra base hits. He has hit his total base prop in 15 of his last 19 games, including 6 straight games. He is averaging 4.1 total bases over the last 10 games. With todayβs afternoon game at home, we have many splits in our favor:
Home: .385 average, .321 ISO, 11 extra base hitsΒ in 78 at bats
Day games: .375 average, .292 ISO, 13 extra base hits in 72 at bats
Righties: .321 average, .221 ISO, 17 extra base hits in 140 at bats
He checks all boxes there, and for good measure he is 8/18 vs Corbin Burnes in his career. At +140, I am loving this prop today.
