There’s No Reason to Stop Betting Trea Turner’s Props Going into Weekend Series with Guardians

Trea Turner has 13 hits across seven games in May.
He had two hits in every game of the Phillies’ sweep of the Rays, so why stop betting his props going into the weekend series with the Guardians?
Turner’s hot streak is enough to bet him no matter who the opposing pitcher is, but hot damn, does the matchup against Gavin Williams look juicy.
Right-handed batters have a .381 batting average against Williams, who allowed seven hits in each one of his last three starts.
The over 1.5 on Turner’s total bases is +140 at bet365, which feels like an absolute steal of a bet given all the factors involved in Friday’s game.
Depending on what your read is on Aaron Nola this week, the Phils either need multiple hits from guys like Turner, or only need a few big knocks to win the game.
To his credit, Nola allowed just seven hits and a single earned run over 13 innings in his last two starts. Those two games were against the Cubs and Diamondbacks, so that’s even more encouraging.
The Guardians have the seventh-fewest strikeouts in the majors, so the under 5.5 on Nola’s strikeout line at PA sports betting apps isn’t really a fade of the right-hander because he can still have a solid outing with a ton of contact.
The over on Nola’s outs recorded prop of 17.5 is -190. That’s a great parlay piece to use with Turner and the Phillies money line. Bet365 has a 30 percent SGP boost available for that.
