As usual, there’s some MLB action on the West Coast in tonight’s late slate schedule. The San Francisco Giants look to start a new series on a high note at Oracle Park as they host the Atlanta Braves at 10:15 p.m. EST.
Here’s the top prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Giants vs. Braves on Friday.
Matt Chapman over 1.5 hits + runs + RBIs (-105)
Over the last 15 days, no other Giants batter is hotter than Matt Chapman. The 32-year-old is slashing .333/.434/.533 over that span with a .967 OPS, six runs, and three RBIs. He’s also hit three home runs in that span, so there’s some pop in his bat at the moment. Spencer Schwellenbach is a tough matchup, but Chapman is seeing the ball wall. I expect him to go over 1.5 H + R + RBI in this matchup, but I’m not watching for the team to win by any means.
Spencer Schwellenbach over 18.5 outs recorded (+135)
Speaking of Schwellenbach, over 18.5 outs looks like a great bet at plus odds in Friday night’s outing. He’s throwing to the tune of a 3.13 ERA and 1.03 WHIP with 71 strikeouts in 74.2 innings. The 25-year-old righty is among the best in the business, but he’s seen plenty of success lately, too. Having gone over this line in four straight games, this value feels fantastic as Schwellenbach tries to continue his hot streak.
Ronald Acuna Jr. 2+ total bases (-110)
This Braves superstar made his return from serious injury in recent weeks. Ever since coming back, the outfielder is slashing an impressive .333/.412/.644 with 29 total bases in 12 games. That comes out an an average of over two total bases per outing, and with Acuna’s speed, this mark still feels a bit low. However, we’re taking the safer route with decent odds as he continues to work his way back up to speed (though it looks like Acuna may already be back to his old self).
