Wilyer Abreu To Record An RBI (+155)

Wilyer Abreu would be an MVP candidate if they handed one out for the first month of the season.

The 25-year-old has gone 14-for-37 at the plate, including three doubles, three home runs, and 12 RBIs -- the 10th-most (tied) in MLB.

He's generating a 16.7% barrel rate, 43.3% fly-ball rate, .324 ISO, and 234 wRC+. A matchup against the right-handed Chris Bassitt awaits, making Abreu a good bet to record an RBI.

Bassitt has given up just one run and punched out 16 batters through 12 2/3 innings this season. He's had an excellent start and is particularly nasty in same-handed matchups. However, he took some major hits against lefties just a season ago. In 2024, Bassitt coughed up a .305 BA, .458 SLG, 39.0% fly-ball rate, and 1.54 home runs per nine innings to left-handed hitters.

Tonight he'll see a Boston Red Sox lineup that trots out a few lethal lefties, including Jarren Duran, Rafael Devers, and Abreu. All three have great outlooks tonight after the team posted a mere four hits last night, but I'll ultimately ride with the hottest hand of the bunch. Abreu attacked righties for a .225 ISO and 49.6% fly-ball rate last year and has logged 11 of his 12 RBIs in this split this season.

George Springer To Record An RBI (+175)

A perhaps new and improved George Springer will meet up with a vulnerable Walker Buehler on the other side of this game.

In 2024, Springer posted a .220 BA and failed to reach 20 home runs for the first time in his career (minimum 110 games). But this year? So far, so good. He's gone 17-for-38 at the plate, including two doubles, one triple, and two home runs.

He's producing an 18.5% barrel rate, 55.6% hard-hit rate, .263 ISO, and 245 wRC+ and will now take on a pitcher who has given up an unsurprising nine runs and three home runs through 9 1/3 innings this season.

Buehler posted a 5.38 ERA and 4.54 SIERA last season. He surrendered a 35.0% fly-ball rate and 1.89 home runs per nine innings to righties, even allowing the seventh-highest HR/9 mark among throwers who logged at least 75 innings. If his first two starts this season are any indication, Buehler has yet to find control.

Batting cleanup for the Jays, I like Springer's chances to log his 10th RBI of the season tonight.

Jesus Luzardo 7+ Strikeouts (+134)

Jesus Luzardo has been dominant to start his 2025 campaign. He's punched out a seismic 19 batters (8 and 11 Ks) through 12 IP, letting up just two runs in that span.

His ferocious 41.3% strikeout rate will come back down to earth in time, but he did master a healthy 28.1% strikeout rate back in 2023 -- his last fully healthy season.

A matchup with a struggling Atlanta Braves offense awaits, so I'm looking for Luzardo to strike out seven batters.

Atlanta's offense comes in with a .288 wOBA (22nd), .327 SLG (26th), and 82 wRC+ (23rd). They are a lost group right now and sport a 25.2% strikeout rate -- the sixth-highest in MLB.

Dating back to 2023, Luzardo has punched out at least seven batters in 7 out of 12 games (58.3%) against teams that own a 24.0% strikeout rate or higher. These +134 odds imply only a 42.7% probability.
