Welcome in to FantasyPros MLB: this is Leading Off. As always, it’s me, Joe Pisapia joined by Chris Welsh.
Happy Opening Day, everybody. We’ve got a pair of Hard Rock Best Bets for this afternoon’s loaded slate.
Joe Pisapia’s Hard Rock Bet of the Day: Pete Alonso Over 0.5 RBI (+130)
I’m looking at a big day from Pete Alonso – I see him making an impact on day one with the Baltimore Orioles.
Odds are currently at +130 for an RBI – he just needs to drive in one.
Chris Welsh’s Hard Rock Bet of the Day: Milwaukee Brewers -1.5
I’m not going to lie, I’m a little less excited about this one after the line movement, but I did put this in yesterday and I still feel good about.
I’ve got the Milwaukee Brewers run line, -1.5, with Misiorowski on the mound. I think he’s going to do a solid job against this White Sox lineup and keep them in check. The Brewers offense should be able to put up some runs. I like Shane Smith, but I’m sticking with this play.
Chris Welsh’s Bonus Play for Opening Day: Zac Gallen o4.5 Strikeouts
I’ll give you a secondary one I like as well: Zac Gallen over strikeouts. You can get over 4.5 at plus money. He’s hit five or more strikeouts in multiple recent outings against the Dodgers. Gallen’s been dealing, and the Dodgers do have some strikeout tendencies. I really like Gallen for five strikeouts tonight.
I’m playing both, but the official Hard Rock Bet of the Day is Brewers -1.5. Let’s make it a 2-0 day.
