Will Smith, Dodgers LESS than 8 Fantasy Points
Smith is hot with back-to-back four-hit games but eight is a big number for the catcher. SP Yusei Kikuchi has been excellent this season and I think the odds are greatly in our favor that Smith doesn’t reach 9 points.
Elly De La Cruz, Reds MORE than 0.5 Runs
Texas SP Michael Lorenzen has been much better than expected but that comes to an end today. De La Cruz is an electrifying player and I expect the Reds to score a lot of runs today with Elly coming across at least once.
Mitchell Parker MORE than 4 Strikeouts
As long as Parker isn’t abysmal, he should at least reach this number with a good chance to surpass it. He pitched 7 innings last time out and should make 6 innings today.
Juan Soto, Yankees MORE than 1.5 Total Bases
I don’t think you can ever go wrong picking Soto. He is hitting as advertised and is a top-five player. He should sting SP Joe Ross for at least a double today.
Jo Adell, Angels MORE than 0.5 Hits
Adell has hit in six out of his last eight games. Twin’s SP Chris Paddack has given up 30 hits over his past 21 innings. I think Adell can at least get a seeing-eye single in this one.
Julio Rodriguez, Mariners MORE than 1.5 Total Bases
Julio is hot right now surpassing this number in 8 out of his last 10 games. A player with his speed can turn singles into doubles and I expect an extra-base hit today.
