MLB Player Props Underdog Fantasy July 7

 

 

Austin Riley – OVER 1.5 total bases

We got the best version of Austin Riley a year ago and that hasn’t necessarily been the case this year until recently. Through six games in July, he's slashing .478/.520/1.043 with three home runs as well. Riley draws an extremely juicy matchup against Matthew Liberatore, who's allowed righties to bat .306 with an OPS of 1.010 and a .421 wOBA.

On the year, Riley has crushed left-handed pitching, batting .296 with six home runs and a .436 wOBA. In 81 at-bats, Riley has 16 extra-base hits, which could have him hit this number in his first at-bat tonight. It’s going to be 90-plus degrees and the ball is going to carry well tonight in Atlanta. I love Riley and the rest of the Braves overall.

 

 

 

Kris Bryant – OVER 1.5 total bases

This Rockies/Diamondbacks game is going to be VERY popular in DFS and there are a LOT of run-scoring opportunities here. Kris Bryant has been very good since returning from injury. In the eight games since his return, he’s hitting .313 with a .347 wOBA and hits in six of the eight contests. It’s a small sample, but Bryant is batting .314 against left-handed pitching in 35 at-bats. This is nothing new either as Bryant has always hit left-handed pitching well. For his career, he has a .964 OPS, .263 ISO, and a .404 wOBA versus southpaws. 

The southpaw Bryant is facing tonight is an absolute washed version of Dallas Keuchel, who has already been cut once this season and it could happen again after this start. In two starts with Arizona, Keuchel has allowed 10 ER across 9.1 innings while allowing 18 base runners. He has an 8.27 ERA this year, which includes his poor stats with the Chicago White Sox. Right-handed hitters have a .322 AVG, .910 OPS, and a .402 wOBA off of Keuchel.

 

 

 

Jordan Lyles – OVER 17.5 outs

It’s a very scary thought having to face the likes of Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, and Taylor Ward three times each in a game. However, it hasn’t mattered all that much lately for opposing pitchers when you look at the numbers. Over the last 30 days, the Angels have a 30.1% K-rate, which leads the league, and they’re also 29th in OPS and wOBA as well.

On the mound, we have Jordan Lyles who has gone six or more innings in three straight games and has topped six innings in seven of his last 12 starts. He’s also been quite good at home this season as he’s posted a 2.92 ERA while not allowing ANY home runs, compared to a 6.48 ERA and 12 HR on the road. Camden Yards has turned into one of the best pitchers' parks in the league and I think Lyles has the upside to turn in one of his best performances of the year. DK Sportsbook has over 17.5 outs as a -150 favorite as well.
