Will Smith (LAD) Under 1.5 Doubles (-1429)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
Betting on Will Smith for Under 1.5 in the Batter Doubles market is a statistically sound choice. Over his last five games, Smith's average for doubles, both overall and at home, is just 0.2. This indicates a low frequency of hitting doubles. Additionally, when facing the Rockies, his doubles average drops to zero. Although Smith has a commendable overall hit streak, his doubles performance does not match this. His average hits per game are also relatively low, at 1 overall and 1.4 at home. Therefore, despite his impressive hit streak, the specific nature of this bet - focusing on doubles - makes the Under 1.5 a strong option. His historical performance suggests it's unlikely he will hit two or more doubles in the upcoming game against the Rockies.
Teoscar Hernandez (LAD) Under 3.5 Hits+Runs+RBIs (-167)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The bet on Teoscar Hernandez for Under 3.5 in the Batter Hits Runs Rbis market is a good choice based on his recent performance data. In the last five games, Hernandez's batting averages for hits, runs, and RBIs are all below the line of 3.5. His overall average (hits + runs + RBIs) is 1.6, at home it's 0.8, and against the Rockies it's 3.2. Additionally, Hernandez is currently not on a hit streak either overall or at home, which suggests he might be in a slump. Even his best recent performance against the Rockies doesn't reach the 3.5 line. Therefore, the statistical likelihood of Hernandez achieving over 3.5 in the Batter Hits Runs Rbis market is low, making the Under 3.5 bet a statistically sound choice.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
Betting on Will Smith for Under 1.5 in the Batter Hits market is a solid choice due to his recent performance data. His last five overall hits average is 1, and his home hits average is 1.2, both below the line of 1.5. Even when facing the Rockies, his hits average is 1.4, still under the line. His plate appearances averages also suggest limited opportunities to exceed the line. Furthermore, his current hit streaks, both overall and at home, are at zero, indicating a recent lack of consistency in getting hits. This combination of lower hit averages and current hit streaks suggest a higher likelihood for Smith to stay under 1.5 hits in the upcoming game.
