Entree (1u) - Julio Rodriguez 1+ Hit & Riley Greene 1+ Hit (-119 FanDuel)

I thought this parlay would end up being closer to +100 odds but it's not and it doesn't surprise me with the way these two have gotten on base of late. I'll start with Riley Greene. Batting versus a right handed pitcher, he's averaging a .347 weighted on-base average with a .400 batting average on balls in play. He's averaging a 76.1% contact rate as well. He faces Zack Greinke tonight, who is allowing a .343 wOBA and a .215 ISO against left handed batters. He's not a strikeout guy with only a 16.7% versus lefties. Greinke is throwing 4-seam, curve ball, and changeup the most when facing a left handed batter. Greene averages a .321 wOBA and 79% contact rate versus the 4-seam, averages a .284 wOBA and a .176 ISO versus the curve, which isn't great, and then averages a .266 wOBA with a 76% contact rate versus the changeup. Greene has a hit in 33/45 games this season, which makes up for 73% of games. He's got a hit in both games versus the Royals this season as well.

Julio Rodriguez has a hit in 27/46 games this season, which is 59% of games. He's played 4 games versus the Athletics this season and has 4 hits in 4 games. He is averaging a .304 wOBA with a .196 ISO versus a left handed pitcher. Rodriguez numbers aren't as eye popping as you'd hope but this bet is more about the matchup. Ken Waldichuk has been AWFUL this season and well so have the Oakland Athletics. Waldichuk is allowing a .324 batting average on balls in play, while also allowing a .405 wOBA and a .270 ISO versus right handed batters. He's only averaging a 18.8% strikeout rate versus righties, which is low but the best rate of the two hands. He doesn't hit well versus the 4-seamer but versus the changeup, Rodriguez is hitting a .428 wOBA and a .350 ISO. He's batting 2nd so he should get plenty of chances for a hit if the rest of the Mariners can also get after Waldichuk.
