His recent 5-game average of 0.80 singles per game is close to todays line, and he maintains a solid season average of 0.729.

Key Analysis
Miguel Vargas OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (+100 on DraftKings) offers great value given his recent surge at the plate. Vargas is averaging 4.2 H/R/RBIs over his last 5 games and has cleared this line in 8 of his last 10, including a 5 H/R/RBI performance in his most recent outing. His season average of 1.79 H/R/RBIs already hovers near the line, and his recent form suggests he's trending upward. He’ll face Cade Horton, who enters with a 4.04 ERA and has allowed 5.33 hits per game across 12 appearances—leaving plenty of opportunity for Vargas to stay hot.
Risk Factors
Might depend on others in the lineup to help cash

5 out of last 5 under
10 out of last 10 under
Key Analysis
Baltimore Orioles UNDER 5.5 Team Runs (+100 on BetRivers) stands out as a strong value based on both recent team trends and the opposing pitcher’s consistency. The Orioles have scored under 5.5 runs in 10 straight games, averaging just 3.67 runs over their last 3 and 3.8 over their last 5. Their season average of 4.09 runs per game also falls well below the line. They’ll face Antonio Senzatela, who has been solid, allowing more than 5 runs in just 2 of his last 10 starts.
Risk Factors
Senzatela’s high ERA
🎯 Marlins @ Brewers NRFI
Best Price: -109 on Pinnacle

Recent Performance
Last Game: NRFI
Last 3-Game Average: Brewers 3/L3 NRFI Marlins 1/L3
Last 5-Game Average: Brewers 5/L5 NRFI Marlins 3/L5
Last 10-Game Average: Brewers 10/L10 NRFI Marlins 6/L10
Key Analysis
Marlins @ Brewers NRFI (-109 on Pinnacle) looks like a solid play backed by strong recent trends and reliable starting pitching. The Brewers have been a consistent NRFI team lately, hitting in 10 straight games and a perfect 5-for-5 over their last five. The Marlins have been more hit-or-miss but still managed the NRFI in 3 of their last 5. On the mound, Janson Junk (3.09 ERA) and José Quintana (3.49 ERA) both bring stability and effectiveness early in games, giving this play added support. With recent history and solid arms on the bump, this NRFI holds strong value at near-even odds.
Risk Factors
Marlins have scored in first inning 2 of last 3
