Read below to see the props I’m looking at on Friday’s MLB roster.
Phillies First 5 Innings Team Over 2.5 (-120) (0.5 U)
Odds available on the DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publication are playable as low as -130. The complete Phillies game team total is also playable.
We have made this exact bet this season already. On August 6, Patrick Corbin failed to get out of the first inning when he allowed 5 hits, 2 walks, 2 home runs and 6 earned runs. Philadelphia scored 9 runs in the first 2 innings of that game. The next time the Phillies faced Corbin this year it ended in 9 runs crossing the plate with 8 hits and 2 home runs in 3.1 IP. Corbin has been nothing short of terrible this season ranking in the top percentile in xERA, xBA and xSLG. He also ranks in the 8th percentile or worse in barrel rate, slugging rate and average exit velocity. He throws 4 pitches with their xBAs sitting at .311, .258, .306 and .375.
On the road this season, Corbin has a 7.95 ERA, .330 OBA and a 1.93 WHIP. On the night he has a 7.17 ERA, .331 OBA and 1.84 WHIP. In 166 combined ABs, this Phillies roster has a .317 AVG and .977 against Corbin with 23 extra-base hits. In the last 30 days against left-handed pitching, the Phillies rank 8th in wOBA and OPS, 12th in ISO, 7th in SLG and have a 122 wRC+. Of the last 18 left-handed pitchers to face Philadelphia, 11 of them have allowed 3 or more runs in the first 5 innings. This game will be played at Citizens Bank Park, one of the most hitter-friendly parks in MLB. Today is if he projects well to score and I expect the Phillies’ bats to stay hot against Corbin.
