April 1 MLB Prop Bet Pick
Ramon Laureano, Oakland Athletics vs. Houston Astros (10:07 p.m. ET)
Player To Record an RBI (-110)
Wager: 1 unit (win would pay 1.91 units)
Laureano is projected to open the season hitting out of the No. 5 hole, an excellent slot in the heart of what should be a potent Athletics order. Laureano also slashed an impressive .278/.396/.500 across 48 plate appearances with men in scoring position last season, and he faces a pitcher in Zack Greinke that he’s already touched up for a .636 average (7-for-11) with two doubles, a triple and three home runs.
The power Laureano has already demonstrated versus Greinke certainly helps his chances of notching at least one RBI in the form of a solo home run, but it’s also worth noting that the player slated to immediately precede him in the order, Matt Chapman, owns a .357 average in 14 plate appearances against Greinke in his own right and therefore could have a solid hance of being on base when Laureano comes up to hit.
