Dinger Tuesday plays:
Adley Rutschman to hit a home run (+450)
Rutschman’s swing from the right side has been a thing of beauty this year. His 1.164 OPS against lefties is fueled by an absurd .698 slugging percentage so far. He’s battered Cortes to date, going 6-for-12, and with his swing from the right side he should get ahold of a ball or two and give it a run.
Jorge Mateo to hit a home run (+680)
Mateo has hit Cortes well, going 3-for-10. With more playing time of late, he has timed pitchers well and is staying balanced enough to give one a ride. It’s Dinger Tuesday, let’s give it a shot.
Aaron Judge to hit a home run (+220)
Judge has victimized Dean Kremer to the tune of three home runs in 10 at-bats. Judge likes to hit in Baltimore and saw the ball well last night. +220 is about as low as odds can get to hit a home run, but not without good reason.
Yordan Alvarez to hit a home run (+255)
Alvarez has taken Carlos Carrasco deep twice in three at-bats. This game has a high total and should see home runs fly. Perfect for Dinger Tuesday.
Bryce Harper to hit a home run (+320)
Harper has taken Tyler Anderson to the woodshed, with a career 2.400 OPS against the Angels starter. Enough said.
Jo Adell to hit a home run (+400)
Adell is finally catching fire in LA after struggling for a few seasons. His xSLG is in the 100th percentile and he’s barreling the ball at an elite rate so far (15 percent).
Brook Lopez over 14.5 points. Brook Lopez to score 20+ points. Brook Lopez over 1.5 3’s made. Brook Lopez 3+ threes made.
With no Giannis or Lillard, Lopez’s volume and usage skyrockets.
Parlay: Tyrese Maxey 3+ threes made + Joel Embiid 2+ threes made.
In an elimination game, the Sixers will look to spread the floor and create spacing, which they got away from last game.
