One of the most gifted sluggers of his generation, he sits in MLB\u2019s top one percent in xwOBA (.420), xSLG (.624), and squared-up percentage (39.1%).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Soto is primed for another strong showing in Sunday\u2019s rubber match, facing Atlanta\u2019s Bryce Elder. While the All-Star right-hander has impressed with a 2.66 ERA (3.02 xERA) and a 1.05 WHIP this season, he\u2019s struggled in past meetings with the former World Series champ. Soto is 3-for-7 (.429) with a home run in his career against Elder.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.draftkings.com\/event\/sd-padres-%2540-bal-orioles\/34275103\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Pete Alonso 3+ Hits + Runs + RBIs (+126)<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Polar Bear is on fire. Baltimore\u2019s Pete Alonso crushed one the other way on Saturday for his third home run in the last four contests. He\u2019s now riding a five-game hitting streak, going 8-for-19 (.421) with seven RBIs and six runs scored in that blistering stretch.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The righty slugger, 31, should stay hot in Sunday\u2019s rubber match against the Padres, facing struggling right-hander Walker Buehler. The two-time World Series champ\u2019s decent 4.33 ERA is underscored by a 4.78 xERA, a .280 xBA, and a boatload of loud contact. Alonso is primed to capitalize, having gone 5-for-17 (.294) with four home runs and eight RBIs in past meetings with Buehler.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.draftkings.com\/players\/baseball\/miles-mikolas-odds-32338\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Miles Mikolas Under 2.5 Strikeouts (+111)<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2026 has so far been a season to forget for Miles Mikolas. The veteran right-hander, 37, has gotten crushed to the tune of a 5.90 ERA (5.01 xERA) and a 1.34 WHIP in 14 appearances (six starts) this season, while struggling to generate swings and misses. Mikolas ranks in MLB\u2019s bottom four percent with a paltry 14.5% strikeout rate across 61 innings.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While his strikeout line may feel almost too low, Mikolas has finished with fewer than 2.5 strikeouts in five starts this season \u2014 including back-to-back outings heading into Sunday. Compounding the issue, the Mariners have posted the third-lowest strikeout rate in baseball (19.7%) since the beginning of June.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cooper Albers shares his top player prop bets for Sunday\u2019s MLB slate.
