Logan O'Hoppe (TEX) vs Logan Gilbert (RHP) 0.333 AVG, 1.333 OPS in 9 career AB | T-Mobile Park | **1+ Hit (minus 127)** *Career: 3-for-9 · .333 · 2 HR · 2 XBH · 1.333 OPS · 2 K* O'Hoppe's slash line against Gilbert translates to a 1.333 OPS over 9 AB. That is the kind of split that turns a prop into a play. Small sample, but the dominance is notable. A home run every 5 at bats in this matchup is well above league pace. Currently listed at 1+ Hit (minus 127). The take is simple. History sides hard with O'Hoppe here. I'm on his hit prop tonight. ## 2. LaMonte Wade Jr. (HOU) vs Zack Wheeler (RHP) 0.667 AVG, 1.381 OPS in 6 career AB | Citizens Bank Park *Career: 4-for-6 · .667 · 1.381 OPS · 1 BB* A 1.381 career OPS against a single pitcher is rare, and Jr. owns it against Wheeler across 6 at bats. That is run producing dominance, not noise. Small sample, but the dominance is notable. Played at Citizens Bank Park, a plus environment for hitters. Bottom line: Jr. owns this matchup against Wheeler. I want him in my lineup tonight. ## 3. Christian Walker (HOU) vs Zack Wheeler (RHP) 0.429 AVG, 1.192 OPS in 21 career AB | Citizens Bank Park | **1+ Hit (minus 176)** *Career: 9-for-21 · .429 · 1 HR · 4 XBH · 1.192 OPS · 6 K · 1 BB* When OPS hits 1.192 in a career H2H sample, you take it seriously. Walker is 9-for-21 against Wheeler with the kind of contact that drives runs. Solid sample size, and this is a reliable edge. 4 extra base hits in 21 AB. When he connects, the ball gets out of the infield in a hurry. Played at Citizens Bank Park, a plus environment for hitters. Verdict: give me Walker every time he steps in against Wheeler. I'm on his hit prop tonight. > Look up any pitcher vs batter career history on the [Hitter vs Pitcher dashboard](/mlb/hitting-stats). ## 4. Matt Olson (ATL) vs Nick Martinez (RHP) 0.375 AVG, 1.224 OPS in 16 career AB | Truist Park | **1+ Hit (minus 199)** *Career: 6-for-16 · .375 · 2 HR · 2 XBH · 1.224 OPS · 4 K · 3 BB* A 1.224 career OPS against a single pitcher is rare, and Olson owns it against Martinez across 16 at bats. That is run producing dominance, not noise. Moderate sample, and a real pattern is emerging. A home run every 8 at bats in this matchup is well above league pace. 3 walks in 16 AB show he reads this arm well even when he is not swinging. Verdict: give me Olson every time he steps in against Martinez. I'm on his hit prop tonight. ## 5. Brandon Marsh (PHI) vs Cristian Javier (RHP) 0.500 AVG, 1.200 OPS in 10 career AB | Citizens Bank Park | **1+ Hit (minus 147)** *Career: 5-for-10 · .500 · 2 XBH · 1.200 OPS · 4 K* When OPS hits 1.200 in a career H2H sample, you take it seriously.

Currently listed at 1+ Hit (minus 147). When the sample says this much, you trust it. Marsh has Javier's number. I'm on his hit prop tonight. ## 6. Mauricio Dubón (ATL) vs Nick Martinez (RHP) 0.600 AVG, 1.100 OPS in 5 career AB | Truist Park | **1+ Hit (minus 230)** *Career: 3-for-5 · .600 · 1.100 OPS* .600 is a real number when it holds up over 5 at bats. Dubón sees something against Martinez that other hitters do not. Tiny sample, so treat it as directional, not definitive. Currently listed at 1+ Hit (minus 230). Verdict: give me Dubón every time he steps in against Martinez. I'm on his hit prop tonight. ## 7. Yandy Díaz (TB) vs Martín Pérez (LHP) 0.400 AVG, 1.105 OPS in 30 career AB | Truist Park | **2+ Hits (+181)** *Career: 12-for-30 · .400 · 2 HR · 4 XBH · 1.105 OPS · 7 K · 2 BB* Díaz's slash line against Pérez translates to a 1.105 OPS over 30 AB.

Bottom line: Díaz owns this matchup against Pérez. I'm on his hit prop tonight. ## 8. Julio Rodríguez (SEA) vs Jacob deGrom (RHP) 0.389 AVG, 1.032 OPS in 18 career AB | T-Mobile Park | **1+ Hit (minus 223)** *Career: 7-for-18 · .389 · 1 HR · 2 XBH · 1.032 OPS · 3 K · 1 BB* Career batting average against deGrom: .389 in 18 AB. Rodríguez has the kind of pitch recognition on this arm that does not show up against the rest of the league. Moderate sample, and a real pattern is emerging. Currently listed at 1+ Hit (minus 223). When the sample says this much, you trust it. Rodríguez has deGrom's number. I'm on his hit prop tonight. ## Hit Props to Consider - **Logan O'Hoppe 1+ Hit (minus 127)**: 0.333 career AVG vs Logan Gilbert (9 AB).
