Trea Turner (PHI) Under 1.5 RBIs (-1000)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
When the Phillies face off against the Giants, Trea Turner’s recent form points towards a quieter night at the plate. Sure, Turner is a dynamic player, but the Giants’ pitching staff has been stingy lately, allowing just 3.2 runs per game over their last ten outings. Their starter has been especially tough, boasting a strikeout rate that makes it hard for even the hottest hitters to find their rhythm.
Moreover, Turner has faced left-handed pitching—expected in this matchup—where he’s struggled a bit, posting a sub-.700 OPS. With the Giants’ defense backing their pitcher and the Phillies' recent inconsistency, the likelihood of Turner driving in two runs seems shaky at best. Betting the under on his RBIs feels like a smart play as the odds favor a low-scoring affair, making those runs tougher to come by. Expect a dogfight, but don’t count on Turner racking up the RBIs tonight.
