Key Analysis
Nico Hoerner's OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs prop at -135 on ESPN Bet offers strong value given his recent form and matchup. He has exceeded this line in 8 of his last 10 games, including 4 of the last 5 and 2 of the last 3, averaging 3.4 H/R/RBIs over his last five—well above his season average of 2.319. Hoerner is coming off a 5 H/R/RBI performance and has shown consistent production lately. The matchup is also favorable: he owns a .368 batting average against lefties and hits .434 with runners in scoring position. Against Reds starter Andrew Abbott, he's 2-for-5 in his career, and Abbott has been hittable recently, allowing 24 hits, 7 runs, and 15 walks over his last seven starts. With a confidence score of 89, all signs point toward Hoerner continuing his productive stretch and clearing this modest line.

Key Analysis
Rhys Hoskins’ OVER 0.5 Hits prop at -130 on FanDuel looks like a solid value play given both recent form and a highly favorable matchup. He’s hit this mark in 4 of his last 5 games and is averaging 1.4 hits over his last five, well above his season average of 0.959. He’s also coming off a 2-hit game and has posted a strong .319 batting average in May. Most notably, Hoskins is 6-for-9 lifetime against Mitch Keller, who has allowed 42 hits over his last 7 starts. With a .309 average against right-handers and a 73 confidence score, the data suggests this is a spot where Hoskins is well-positioned to pick up at least one hit.
Risk Factors
Keller has a higher than average walk rate
🎯 Josh Rojas UNDER 0.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs
Best Price: -105 on DraftKings

Recent Performance
Last Game: 2 H/R/RBIs

Key Analysis
Josh Rojas’ UNDER 0.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs at -105 on DraftKings presents strong value backed by a compelling mix of recent trends and poor matchup metrics. He’s hit the under in 8 of his last 10 games, including 4 of the last 5, and is averaging just 0.4 H/R/RBIs over his last five games—nearly half his already low season average of 0.75. While he did post a 2 H/R/RBI performance last game, that appears to be an outlier. Rojas is 0-for-3 in his career vs Mark Leiter Jr., and his splits are discouraging: just a .154 average vs righties and an abysmal .091 with runners in scoring position. Even though Leiter has allowed 24 hits and 17 runs over his last 7 starts, Rojas' cold bat and poor situational hitting suggest he's unlikely to take advantage. With a confidence score of 89, the under is a sharp lean here.
Risk Factors

🎯 Spencer Steer OVER 0.5 Singles
Best Price: +115 on ESPN Bet

5 out of last 5 over
Key Analysis
Spencer Steer’s OVER 0.5 Singles at +115 on ESPN Bet offers strong value with plus odds, especially given his recent surge and favorable matchup. He’s recorded a single in five straight games, averaging 1.2 singles per game over his last five—more than double his season average of 0.556. In his last three games alone, he’s averaging 1.33 singles per game, including a 2-single outing most recently. Steer has also had success against Colin Rea, hitting .417 with a 1.129 OPS in the matchup. Rea has allowed 34 hits over his last seven starts, giving Steer ample opportunity to extend his hot streak. With a confidence score of 86, this prop stands out as a high-upside play with great value.
