📊 HOW WE PICK OUR HIT PROPS

Covers confirms Harper's .415 wOBA and .301 ISO and explicitly backs him to lead the Phillies offense against Miami today. Citizens Bank Park is one of baseball's most hitter-friendly venues. Harper has hit safely in 52 of his last 65 games.

Covers: ".380 wOBA and .319 ISO vs righties." Bats leadoff for the Phillies — most plate appearances in the lineup. Volume plus elite production vs right-handers against the Marlins makes him one of the safest hit props on the slate.

SI Betting: "Soto has fared well against Singer — 4-for-10 with a 1.000 OPS." Soto leads the Mets with 58 hits and a .389 OBP. Singer carries a 5.61 ERA. Great American Ball Park is one of baseball's most hitter-friendly venues. Career matchup dominance plus a hitter's park is the strongest setup on Tuesday's slate.

Ohtani hits .302 in 2026 in a lineup featuring Tucker ($240M signing), Betts, Freeman and Pages — arguably baseball's deepest order. He's Baseball-Reference's #1 "In the News" player and sees quality plate appearances in run-scoring situations every game.

MLB.com confirms Alvarez hit .377 with a 1.304 OPS since May 25 — his 7 HR in that span led all of baseball. His 22 HR lead the AL while his .316 average sits 2nd-best. The hottest hitter in the American League with an AL Triple Crown watch officially on.

FanDuel Research confirms Burleson has "picked up at least one hit in 15 straight games." SI Betting: "I'll back Burleson to stay hot at home against the Padres." He homered off Michael King in their last meeting.

Covers identify Kurtz as the 2nd-most likely homer today — 10 HR over the last 30 days (MLB lead) and 6 HR in his last 9 home games. Power output at this level almost always brings elevated hit probability.

Three picks from one game: Soto (-155), Bichette (-160) and F. Alvarez (-135) all face Brady Singer (5.61 ERA). Soto is 4-for-10 career vs Singer with a 1.000 OPS. Bichette hitting .476 in his last 5. The top hit-prop game on Tuesday's slate.

Five Dodgers picks: Ohtani, Tucker ($240M), Pages, Betts and Freeman. Baseball's deepest lineup — five hit-prop targets in a single game.
