Xavier Edwards has been red hot since coming up to the Miami Marlins. It's a small sample size, but a .387 batting average and .936 OPS are among the best marks in baseball. For now, he's hot enough to pick him to have a multi-hit day, and the odds are pretty good on that front.


4) Yordan Alvarez: Over 0.5 -260

Yordan Alvarez is one of the few qualified hitters batting over .300 this season. That means he's very likely to get a hit today. Fortunately, it doesn't matter if the Houston Astros star gets one or multiple since his line is shockingly low. Take advantage of that today.


3) Gunnar Henderson: Over 1.5 +145

Gunnar Henderson has slowed way down in the second half, with his batting average holding at .268. The Baltimore Orioles star is still one of the best hitters in the game and the odds are pretty good that he's going to get more than one hit today.


2) Bobby Witt Jr.: Over 1.5 +115

Bobby Witt Jr. has been incredible for the last several weeks. He catapulted into the MVP conversation and drove his batting average up to an MLB-leading .343. While he's this hot, take the over no matter what it is.


1) Brenton Doyle: Under 1.5 -235

Brenton Doyle is having a breakout offensive season. That said, he's still hitting .266. That is a solid, above-average metric, but it doesn't suggest that he's due for a multi-hit game today. Take the under since the odds are overwhelming.
