Betts got us a couple hits as projected but unfortunately couldn’t score. Tonight I’m going with a guy who’s always been a top player and seems to be going a little bit under the radar this year and that’s Mike Trout. I have never picked him before for the Slugger but I feel good tonight about him against Colin McHugh who really isn’t an impressive pitcher at all. Trout is 4-14 off him with homerun. Also, he’s a crazy 10-18 in his last 4 games with homeruns in his last 2 games. So what I’m saying is that he is scorching hot with a good matchup. He’s almost chalk and is worth the money tonight.
Haven’t had the time to do a slugger for a couple of days. Today I’m picking Mookie Betts who should be leading off for the Red Sox today. This game contains a big over/under of 10, where Betts should see 5 at-bats. He has a great matchup against a lefty in Martin Perez. Mookie has 7 hits in his last 4 games with multi-hit games in 3 of those 4. I expect Mookie to get another mutli-hit game for me today and a couple runs. Plug him in, even at his decently high price.
