Dodgers vs. Braves Props: Best Baseball Props Today NLCS Game 6

Ian Anderson Under 3.5 Strikeouts (+100) at Caesars

Wager: 0.5 units

Ian Anderson has racked up eight strikeouts in eight innings in two starts this postseason, but his last outing against the Dodgers in Game 2 was only three innings and 55 pitches.

It’s tough to trust that Anderson will pitch enough innings for this prop to hit, especially with the Braves having a chance to eliminate the Dodgers tonight. We have seen managers have quick hooks with their pitchers throughout these playoffs.

I know 3.5 is a low number, but it’s safer to go with the Under.

Freddie Freeman to Hit a Home Run (+400) at Caesars

Wager: 0.5 units

Every once in a while, it’s nice to take a shot at a longshot with a high payout. Why not go with Freddie Freeman to hit a home run?

The star first baseman is slashing .303/.410/.636 with three homers this postseason after going yard 31 times during the regular season.

Freeman has also been successful against tonight’s starter, Walker Buehler, homering twice in 18 plate appearances. While it’s obviously tough to predict when a player will homer, Freeman has terrific value at +400, which ranks 11th among hitters in this game.

No-Run First Inning (-115) at Caesars

Wager: 0.5 units

Any time you have an ace like Buehler on the mound, it’s always a good idea to take a shot on this prop because he’s one of the best pitchers in baseball. Buehler put up a 2.47 ERA and 0.97 WHIP in 207.2 innings this season.

Anderson was much more effective at home, posting a 1.13 WHIP compared to a 1.33 WHIP on the road. He’s been pretty solid this postseason, allowing only two runs in eight innings in his two starts.

The Dodgers are facing elimination here, so I’m betting that Buehler will show up with a strong outing. We just need Anderson to hold down the fort for one inning, which seems like a likely outcome.
