MLB Betting Trends: LaMonte Wade Jr.’s Home Run Streak in Jeopardy

If you’re looking for some plus-money player props tonight, look no further. The Astros-Giants game has a couple of hot players to watch tonight at Minute Maid Park.

I’ve got some fun trends for you today,,,

Astros rookie Hunter Brown has started seven major-league games and appeared in 12 across the past two seasons for Houston. He has five wins in 50⅔ innings of work with a strikeout rate of 9.49 batters per nine innings. His ERA was 0.89 last season and it’s 2.37 this year. But, that’s still not what’s most impressive. Listen to this:

Yes, you read that correctly. Brown has not given up a long ball in any of his 50⅔ innings of work.

The Giants have the third-most home runs in the league this season (48) with 60.5% of their runs scored coming from the home run. That’s the most in MLB.

One player in particular is smoking hot right now: LaMonte Wade Jr.

What happens tonight when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?

Wade is +550 to hit a home run tonight. Brown is +100 to strike out more than 6.5 batters.

Did I mention the Giants also have the highest strikeout rate in the league (27.5%)?

Bet accordingly.
