Freddie Freeman has been absolutely scorching of late, and with books still not juicing his props accordingly, YonkersCFB thinks there is no choice but to back this Dodgers bat against the Yankees.
Freeman has been on an absolute tear, ending May with a .400 batting average and 24 extra-base hits. His figure for extra-base hits was a new franchise record, as were his 17 doubles — which is fairly impressive, considering theHe hit safely in all but two contests during May while starting every game — a testament to consistency.
He’s been especially dominant against right-handed pitching, posting an absurd .962 OPS since 2021 while bashing 44 home runs across 1192 plate appearances. , who has been effective across his first two starts despite not even playing in a minor league rehab game before making his season debut. His splits aren’t all that noticeable, but he is allowing a .670 OPS to left-handed batters in his career compared to .633 for right-handed batters.
The sample size is small, but his 23.3% K-rate so far is way down from his 27.2% career numbers. The same can be said for his 9.5% swinging strike rate — down from 11.8% in his career. Since he isn’t missing bats, he’s relied on an unsustainably low .143 BABIP. Again, the sample is small, but it’s fair to question if Severino is full-go after maxing out at 82 pitches in his last start.
Freeman is riding a 20-game hitting streak entering Friday’s Game 1. Not only has he hit safely, but he’s hit extremely well, as he’s gained multiple hits in 14 of those games — including four of his last five. Freeman’s total hits prop is set at 1.5 with +170 odds on the Over, while his total bases prop is also set at 1.5 but with +105 odds on the Over. Personally, I’ll be playing both and will be taking the total base prop Over as my best bet. The wind is blowing out to right field and yet another Freeman extra-base hit is quite easy to envision in this spot — as is him having yet another multi-hit game.
