Best MLB Player Props for August 20th
Today, we are breaking down 8 hot hitters across 4 different MLB games. Let’s dive into the stats and see who’s on fire!
Lourdes Gurriel Jr.
Facing off against Edward Cabrera and the shaky Miami Marlins look for Lourdes Gurriel Jr. to capitalize off the Marlins many issues. This season he’s capitalized on right handed pitchers the most and is currently batting .1000 off Cabrera this season. In his last 10 games he is 8 for 10 on single base hits and hits + runs + rbis in his last 10 games.
xwOBA: .311
xBA: .269
xSLG: .415
Joc Pederson
Since Being traded to the Diamondbacks, Joc Pederson has been electric at the plate. This season his numbers are stellar in the last 8 out of 10 games he’s recorded a single base hit, a run, or an rbi so we are going to look towards him to continue cooking with heat.
xwOBA: .395
xBA: .282
xSLG: .523
Eugenio Suarez
Suarez is looking to pick up right were he left off against Cabrera boasting a .500 average off his pitching. Lately Eugenio tends to start slow and get his hits late in the game but expect him to get to Cabrera early. In his last 10 games Eugenio is 7 for 10 on single base hits lets count on him to keep this trend going.
xwOBA: .319
xBA: .238
xSLG: .419
Geraldo Perdomo
Lately Geraldo Perdomo has been hit or miss in the line up but not tonight. Tonight he’s facing off against Edward Cabrera who’s strugglings on the mound have been very documented this season, leaving the door wide open for Geraldo. Count on him to be a productive piece in tonight line up.
xwOBA: .284
xBA: .240
xSLG: .334
Aaron Judge
Aaron Judge is the premier player of the New York Yankees organization, just his presence on the plate alone sends rival team managers into a frenzy of emotions. With every plate appearance from Judge, there’s high homerun potential but the value for him tonight is in the fact that his numbers for single base hits these season are off the charts. Lets count on him to bring the boom against Matthew Boyd and collect himself a base hit.
xwOBA: .477
xBA: .310
xSLG: .734
Juan Soto
This will be Juan Soto’s first time seeing Matthew Byod and im expecting him to Soto-shuffle all over the plate tonight. Juan has never been a slouch at the plate or in the outfield. look for him to contribute base hits and electricifying offensive and defensive plays.
xwOBA: .478
xBA: .327
xSLG: .689
J.T. Realmuto
A powerhouse in the Philadelphia Phillies line up, J.T. Realmuto is currently hitting Reynaldo Lopez at a .500 average. Combined with his batting stats this season look for him to come in the clutch and secure a base hot tonight against a broken and injured Braves line up.
xwOBA: .329
xBA: .267
xSLG: .437
Jackson Merrill
One of the hottest rookies this season Jackson Merrill is on pace to collect himself another base hit tonight. He’s currently 4 for 5 on base hits throughout his last 5 games. This will be his first plate appearance against Bailey Ober but Jackson has been crushing pitches from right handed pitchers all year hopefully we see him put that Victus lightsaber bat to good use and cash us out in his first at bat.
xwOBA: .360
xBA: .298
xSLG: .519
