Gross Bombs: NFL Props for Week 16
Josh Gross
Welcome to the prop bet tracker! As MLB season kicks off into full swing, another way to get in on the action is to analyzes the days best prop bets – from strikeouts to home runs, first to five runs to total bases logged.
Each day, we will try and identify a few picks that are ready to explode in the prop market.
Rafael Devers To Hit a Home Run (+400 DraftKings)
I guess I am the last person on earth to love Red Sox hitters. Yup, super legit. How? Let’s try second-best in run differential so far in baseball. And the opposing pitcher? Justin Dunn. Platoon advantage, tough rake with a .464 slugging percentage against opposing bats this season. Devers has been hot recently at the dish, and I like him here.
Joey Lucchesi Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-125 BetRivers)
Friends, I like Joey Lucchesi. He’s a St. Louis native. He pitched at Southeastern Missouri State. But let’s be real. He sucks. Hard. The Cubs offense may be warming – and no, this isn’t overreaction theater with the Cubs' 16-run outburst yesterday. It’s a legit offense. Stay away from Lucchesi.
Walker Buehler Over 6.5 Strikeouts (-125 MGMBet)
I loved this right-hander. So much so, in some season-long teams a year ago, I fully freaking invested in Buehler. He was legit! And he owns a sub-3.00 ERA as a major league pitcher. The Padres offense can certainly cook. But, Fernando Tatis is not right, and this is a smash spot. Take the over.
