Giancarlo Stanton best prop bets for Dodgers vs. Yankees Game 5

By: Garion Thorne

For as much as he struggled during the regular season, Giancarlo Stanton has been an absolute beast in the postseason. He’s one of the main reasons the Yankees even made the World Series, and he’ll likely need another big performance in Game 5 if New York is going to stay alive on Wednesday night.

Let’s explore some Stanton props on the DraftKings Sportsbook.

Giancarlo Stanton 2+ Total Bases (+130)

Stanton was one of the few Yankees that didn’t do much offensively in Game 4, yet the man has been an extra-base hit machine throughout the playoffs. In 57 postseason plate appearances, Stanton owns a .412 ISO and a .686 slugging percentage. Not too shabby for a guy who can’t run faster than a kindergartener. You’ll also remember that it was Stanton that hit the two-run missile off Jack Flaherty in Game of this series. That’s been a pretty consistent issue for the RHP.

During the regular season, Flaherty surrendered a whopping 1.77 home runs per nine to opposing right-handed hitters. In his four starts in October, the 29-year-old is allowing 1.74 opponent long balls per nine to everyone, regardless of handedness. Yankee Stadium has been the American League’s top home run environment dating back to the beginning of 2022, per MLB Park Factors. You can see where this is all going. Heck, it might even be worth taking a shot on Stanton to leave the yard at +275 on the DraftKings Sportsbook.
