Odds available at Bet365 Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Shota Imanaga has headlined our top player props multiple times post all-star break. We backed him 2 starts against the Pirates and allowed 3 hits through 7.0 innings. Today, the Giants play host to Imanaga’s Cubs for a midday showdown. We’re taking on Imanaga’s earned runs at under 2.5 — a number he has hit in 7 of 9 road starts this season while pitching to a 3.09 ERA.
Since the all-star break and acquisition of Rafael Devers, the Giants are 13-22 — but they have won 4 straight. Still, they are hitting .203 versus left-handed pitchers since the break — the third-worst such mark in the majors.
