SUBSCRIBERS

MJ Melendez (KCR) Under 2.5 Total Bases (-256)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Dodgers prepare to host the Mets, all eyes will be on MJ Melendez, but betting the under on his total bases might just be the smart play. Melendez has been striking out at an alarming rate lately, and against a Dodgers pitching staff that boasts a strikeout rate upwards of 25%, he’s likely to face challenges. Moreover, the lefty-lefty matchup against Clayton Kershaw adds an additional layer of difficulty. Kershaw’s ability to command the zone and exploit weaknesses means Melendez could struggle to find his rhythm. The Mets’ lineup has also been inconsistent, failing to produce runs with the same potency they showed earlier in the season, which could put more pressure on Melendez to deliver against a stellar Dodgers bullpen. Given all these factors, the under on Melendez’s total bases feels like a prudent choice in what could be a tightly contested game.
