Julio Rodriguez has made an incredible impact as a rookie and Jason_C_Wilson likes him to topple his total bases prop for a third consecutive game. Plus, he's looking at Max Fried and Justin Verlander to pick up wins.
Julio Rodriguez continues to stake his claim over all other rookies as he builds on his impressive debut campaign. He's batting .274/.332/.474 with a 134 wRC+, 19 home runs, 19 doubles, and 23 stolen bases. And he's done most of his damage since the start of May once he really got going after a rough April.
His 6.80 K/9 is troubling in that he doesn't miss bats and he serves up a ton of hard contact as a result, ranking in the ninth percentile of all pitchers. He has no deception on his pitches, either, factoring into the first percentile in chase rate. Basically, batters lay off his pitches until he gets into hitters' counts and serves up a tasty meatball.
