Brit Devine’s Astros vs Dodgers Preview, Picks
Teoscar Hernandez is having an amazing season against left-handed pitching, with the 8th-highest wOBA in the league against them of any of the 209 batters with at least 60 ABs against them.
Astros' starter Colton Gordon has struggled against right-handed hitters all season, allowing the 7th-highest wOBA to them among the 138 pitchers that have thrown at least 30 innings to right-handed batters.
There is a very high likelihood of hard contact being made by Teoscar today, and with so many good hitters in front of him in the Dodgers' lineup, he should have a great chance to knock in a run or two as well.
I see lots of ways for him to hit the over on this combo prop today. With a big edge here, I am betting to win 2 units and would play this down to -145.
