Following an exciting, back-and-forth battle to open this series, the Kansas City Royals and New York Yankees are at it again tonight for Game 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pregame narrative:<\/strong> After a series opener that had five lead changes, I’m staying away from sides and totals tonight. This +310 SGP features prop bets on Cole Ragans, Aaron Judge and Salvador Perez. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parlay: Ragans over 5.5 strikeouts + Judge to record a hit + Perez to record a hit (+310)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ragans over 5.5 Ks (-157):<\/strong> Ragans has only made one start against the Yankees, and it was a good one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #96676<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In New York last month, the left-hander struck out seven batters over six innings of two-run ball. Including that start, Ragans now has six-plus Ks in six consecutive outings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chucking 95 mph from the left side will always play. And it’s especially potent when paired with a changeup that generates a 47.8% whiff rate, which is the second-highest among all MLB changeups this year (minimum 100 plate appearances).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ragans has struck out nearly 30.0% of batters he’s faced this season while averaging exactly 7.0 Ks per start. This is a comfortable number for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Judge to record a hit (-167):<\/strong> Judge was hitless in his postseason opener, and he’s 0-for-2 against Ragans. But you can’t let those tiny sample sizes get in the way here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #96677<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Judge was probably the best hitter on the planet this season. And he was definitely<\/em> the best hitter against lefties, posting a .311\/.505\/.735 slash line (236 wRC+).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite all the extra juice on this prop, I think there’s value to bet this straight up. Judge’s 2024 success rate on this hits prop (71.1%) outweighs the line’s implied probability (62.6%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perez to record a hit (-210):<\/strong> Another hitter who’ll have the platoon advantage tonight is Perez. He’s batting .297 against lefties this season and will face New York southpaw Carlos Rodon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #96678<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And wouldn’t you know it, Perez has excellent numbers against Rodon, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The duo saw each other most often when Rodon pitched for the White Sox. In total, Perez is 12-for-26 (.462) against Rodon with three home runs and a double.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perez has a hit in all three postseason games so far and has cashed this bet in 111 of 161 games (68.9%) this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
