Bryce Harper Player Prop Prediction, Projection
Harper has been having a solid season at the dish (.290 batting average), but has yet to find his power stroke coming off Tommy John surgery.
The Phillies star has just three homers and 23 RBI, but has still been very productive offensively. Harper's had a hit in nine of his past 11 games and will be facing a pitcher (Weathers) that is 1-5 with a 6.08 ERA.
The model indicates the likelihood of Harper tallying at least one RBI is higher than what the sportsbooks believe. BetMGM has set the total for over 0.5 RBI at +145, while the under is -190. That's the best price on the over in the market.
The model predicts Harper will have 1.4 RBI tonight, good enough for about a 33.8% betting edge on the over.
Do keep in mind that these algorithms work best when you wager with the same size unit for each individual bet.
Pick: Bryce Harper Over 0.5 RBI (+145)
