Key Analysis

Marcell Ozuna’s prop for OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs looks like a strong play tonight. Ozuna has been consistently productive, averaging 2.33 H/R/RBIs over his last 3 games and 2.22 on the season, both comfortably above the 1.5 line. He’s hit this number in 7 of his last 10 games, showing reliable form. More encouraging is his track record against starter Erick Fedde—Ozuna owns a .583 average (12 ABs) against him with 2 home runs, and Fedde has been vulnerable early this year, giving up 13 hits and 8 runs in his first 4 starts. Add in a shaky 4.64 ERA from the Cardinals bullpen, and Ozuna should have multiple chances to deliver. With a confidence score of 86, this is one of the more solid edges on the board.

Risk Factors

  • Could depend on others around him in the lineup

🎯 Kyle Stowers OVER 0.5 Hits

Best Price: -125 on DraftKings

Recent Performance

  • Last Game: 2 Hits

  • Last 3-Game Average: 1 H/G

  • Last 5-Game Average: 1 H/G

  • Season Average: 1.05 H/G

  • Confidence Score: 85

How Has This Prop Performed?

  • 2 out of last 3 over

  • 3 out of last 5 over

  • 7 out of last 10 over

Key Analysis

Kyle Stowers' OVER 0.5 Hits prop at -125 on DraftKings offers sneaky value based on recent form and matchup. He’s recorded a hit in 7 of his last 10 games, including 2 hits in his last outing, and is averaging 1 hit per game over his last 5, right in line with his season average of 1.05 hits per game. What really stands out, though, is his dominance against left-handed pitching—Stowers is batting .500 in 24 ABs vs LHP this season. He faces Nick Lodolo, a lefty who's been solid but hittable, allowing 17 hits in 23.1 innings. With a strong recent trend and elite splits vs lefties, Stowers needs just one knock to cash this.

Risk Factors

  • 0-2 career against Lodolo

🎯 Pete Alonso OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs

Best Price: -110 on DraftKings

Recent Performance

  • Last Game: 2 H/R/RBIs

  • Last 3-Game Average: 2.67 H/R/RBIs per Game

  • Last 5-Game Average: 2.4 H/R/RBIs per Game

  • Season Average: 2.909 H/R/RBIs per game

  • Confidence Score: 76

How Has This Prop Performed?

  • 2 out of last 3 over

  • 3 out of last 5 over

Key Analysis

Pete Alonso’s OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs at -110 on DraftKings looks like a sharp play, especially considering his strong history against Aaron Nola. Alonso owns a .320 career average in 50 ABs against Nola with 5 home runs, showing he’s not just making contact—he’s doing damage. He’s hit this line in 3 of his last 5 games, and his recent averages—2.67 over the last 3 and 2.4 over the last 5—are well above the 1.5 mark. On the season, he’s averaging a robust 2.91 H/R/RBIs per game. Nola, while still capable, has been hittable early on, allowing 27 hits and 16 runs in 21.2 innings.

Risk Factors

  • Has missed this line twice in last 5 games

  • Can be dependent on others performance
