You can choose just two props or choose them all and make it into one big parlay!
This Weeks Record: 6-4
Last Weeks Record: 8-11
Past Six Weeks Record: 56-43-5
Ben Lively MORE than 4 Strikeouts
Although his matchup against the Orioles is a tough one tonight, Lively has been very consistent in the strikeout department over the past six weeks. In his past eight starts, he has struck out four or more hitters seven times, and in his most recent outing, he struck out six against the NL-leading Phillies. Lively is 9-6 this season with a 3.44 ERA and 1.17 WHIP.
Miguel Amaya Less than 0.5 Hits
Amaya had a nice stretch of games offensively in the middle of July but has since cooled back down with one hit in his past five games. On the season, he is batting .215 with a .279 OBP, and he has a tough matchup tonight against Cardinals RHP Sonny Gray, who is 10-6 this season with a solid 3.79 ERA and 1.10 WHIP. These props are tough ones because even a weakly hit ball can land for a hit off of anyone’s bat, but Amaya’s lack of quality contact this season makes me feel confident, anyway.
Vinnie Pasquantino MORE than 6 Fantasy Points
I had Vinnie on this yesterday and I am going right back to it again. He has an excellent matchup against Tigers RHP Keider Montero, who has allowed five ER in each of his past three starts. Vinnie continues to mash, with at least one hit in 10 of his past 11 games and six multi-hit efforts during that time. He had a big game last night with two hits, including a HR and three RBI.
