Yankees vs. Dodgers Same Game Parlay on DraftKings
Shohei Ohtani 2+ total bases
Even in a left-on-left matchup, Ohtani excels. Throughout the season, Ohtani has a .409 wOBA with a .275 ISO and a 164 wRC+. Those numbers improve slightly at home against lefties, with a .418 wOBA, a .237 ISO, and a 171 wRC+. Ohtani has recorded at least 2+ bases in 18 of his 27 games during May, which accounts for a ridiculous 66% of his games. With his numbers against lefties and a struggling Yankees bullpen, I like Ohtani to go reach this number once again.
Dodgers run line -1.5
The Dodgers have won both games in this series and covered the -1.5 spread in each, including an 18-2 rout last night. Their most consistent pitcher, Yamamoto, takes the mound tonight with a 1.97 ERA, a 2.54 xERA, and a 2.75 FIP. Yamamoto throws his four-seam fastball and splitter 63% of the time, with opposing hitters batting .153 and .114 against them, respectively.
Paul Goldschmidt 2+ total bases
One of the Yankee hitters I do like tonight is Goldschmidt. He’s been locked in at the plate over the past week, slashing .380/.429/.560 with a .420 wOBA and a 30% line drive rate. Against both the four-seam and splitter, Goldy is slashing .289/.350/.451 with a .347 wOBA this season. While Yamamoto has been tough to hit against, Goldschmidt has hit exceptionally well against the pitches he throws the most.
