Dodgers vs. Rangers Best Value Player Props (June 12)

All odds above via DraftKings Sportsbook. 

It’s true that Gray has struggled against some top hitting lineups as of late, but he still earned more than this total against the Phillies and Giants in recent outings. Not to mention, he has significant experience against several Dodgers batters and has performed well against Betts and Ohtani throughout his career. In 15 at-bats against Freddie Freeman, he’s struck him out 9 times.

This is excellent value for one of the best hitters in baseball fresh off a strong outing with a double Tuesday night.

Garcia has never recorded a hit against Buehler, who is starting for the Dodgers tonight. He’s averaging over a strikeout per game this season and faces a Dodgers bullpen that’s among the best in the league. All in all, this is tremendous value.

Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Texas Rangers Prediction (June 12)

I can say with all confidence that this game should be a closer affair than Game 1 where the Dodgers downed Texas 15-2.

Dodgers -190 is simply too much risk for me, but with Gray unlikely to pitch more than 4 or 5 innings and the Rangers bullpen having been through the wringer that was last night, Dodgers -1.5 is a strong play at +110.

The trends are in favor of the over hitting with relative ease, with the firepower Los Angeles has and their performance at home this season, we’ll take that pick as well. Los Angeles is one of the top scoring teams in the league for a reason and could very well eat most of this total themselves.

LAD vs. TEX pick: LAD -1.5 (+110), Over 8.5 (-110)
