The 2022 Juan Soto trade is paying dividends for the Washington Nationals. One of the key pieces acquired in the trade with the San Diego Padres was left fielder James Wood. The 22-year-old has been playing like a cagey veteran in one of baseball’s toughest divisions in the National League East. Through 76 games this season, he is hitting .279 with 19 doubles, 20 homers, 56 RBI and nine stolen bases. SportsLine’s model forecasts Wood to go over 0.5 total bases, projecting 1.8 total bases and rates this as a five-star pick. Also, check out our Dodgers vs. Nationals picks for Saturday, along with our top MLB parlay picks and top home run picks.

Best Saturday MLB player prop picks:
- James Wood, Nationals, over 0.5 total bases (-172)
- Emerson Hancock, Mariners, under 3.5 total earned runs (+125)
- Pete Alonso, Mets over 0.5 RBI (+105)
- Parlay these picks for +607 odds with a Caesars Sportsbook promo code (odds subject to change)
James Wood, Nationals, over 0.5 total bases (-172)
Wood has hits in seven of his past 11 games, including five multi-hit performances during that stretch. In an April series against the Dodgers, he went 4-for-10 with three homers and seven RBI. In a series against the New York Mets earlier this month, Wood hit a blistering .500 in the series, going 6-for-12. In Thursday’s win over the Colorado Rockies, he homered twice in five at-bats for four RBI. Additionally, the Dodgers staff has the 21st-best ERA in MLB at 4.19, and has allowed 97 home runs on the year, eighth-worst in MLB, and third-worst in the National League. SportsLine’s model projects 1.8 total bases for Wood, and a BetMGM bonus code could pay up to $1,500 in bonus bets if your first wager loses.
Emerson Hancock, Mariners, under 3.5 total earned runs (+125)
Although Seattle is visiting Wrigley Field, where temperatures could reach the 90s and the wind is blowing out, Hancock has been dominant over his past six starts. Since May 17, he has not allowed more than three earned runs in any one start, and has allowed three or fewer earned runs in 10 of 12 starts this season. In last Sunday’s 6-0 win over the Cleveland Guardians, he pitched seven innings, while allowing just two hits and one walk, while striking out four. Hancock has achieved six unders in his last seven games on the road, giving up an average of 2.0 total earned runs per game. The projection model forecasts 2.1 earned runs for Hancock, giving this a five-star rating. You could add even more value to this MLB prop with the latest DraftKings promo code:
Pete Alonso, Mets, over 0.5 RBI (+105)
Playing against top-notch competition and in key situations tends to bring out the best in Pete Alonso. With first-place in the National League East on the line this weekend, Alonso is already off to a solid start. In Friday’s 10-2 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies, he was 1-for-3 with a homer. In 76 games this season, Alonso is hitting .291 with 22 doubles, one triple, 18 homers and 64 RBI. In 95 career games against Philadelphia, Alonso has 18 homers and 59 RBI. Alonso has also gone over his total bases market in seven of his last 10 games when facing opponents with a middle third-rated defense, with an average of 2.3 total bases per game. Alonso’s projected for 2.1 total bases overall, and this MLB player prop can be wagered on with the latest FanDuel promo code.

Virada do Fluminense sobre Ulsan marca jogo do Mundial em que campo e placar raramente dialogaram
Há jogos que têm o desfecho esperado, mas construído pelos caminhos mais improváveis. A virada do Fluminense sobre o Ulsan foi um jogo em que campo e placar raramente dialogaram. O roteiro do jogo era um, a marcha dos gols era outra. Havia um consenso de que o tricolor só perderia para um time como o Ulsan se jogasse muito mal. Pois fez um bom primeiro tempo e foi para o intervalo perdendo, após ver dois erros individuais serem punidos com gols. Voltou para o segundo tempo com uma alteração que não funcionou. Perdeu forma, ordem, ficou menos criativo e muito exposto aos contragolpes. Nenhum deles terminou em novo gol do Ulsan, mas foi neste segundo tempo mais entregue às individualidades e ao ímpeto do que à organização, que o Fluminense achou a virada. De todo modo, quando passou à […]
