Recommended Player Prop Bets for Brewers vs Angels - Sunday August 02, 2026

-230O/U: 7.5
(-115/-105)+195

Jacob Misiorowski – Over/Under 9.5 Strikeouts (+105/-135)
Jacob Misiorowski’s higher utilization percentage of his fastball this season (63.5 vs. 54.4% last year) is not ideal since they are typically much less effective than breaking or off-speed pitches.
Explain: Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball more often will likely be less effective than he used to be.
Christian Yelich – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-190)
Extreme flyball bats like Christian Yelich generally hit worse against extreme flyball pitchers like Walbert Urena.
Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create diminished performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
Christian Yelich – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+145/-190)
Christian Yelich has a 100th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (42%) but may find it hard to clear the league’s 11th-deepest LF fences in today’s game.
Explain: This player’s skill set does not match up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.

Walbert Urena – Over/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-155/+120)
Out of all starting pitchers, Walbert Urena’s fastball velocity of 96.9 mph grades out in the 95th percentile this year.
Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs.
Denzer Guzman – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-130/+100)
In the last 14 days, Denzer Guzman’s Barrel% has experienced a negative regression, plummeting from his seasonal rate of 5.1% down to 0%.
Explain: Barrel% measures how often a player hits the ball at the optimal exit velocity and launch angle and is a terrific measure of underlying power.
The Los Angeles Angels have 3 bats in their projected lineup today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Denzer Guzman, Zach Neto, Mike Trout).
Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts

The Los Angeles Angels have hit the Team Total Under in 12 of their last 15 games at home (+8.80 Units / 51% ROI)
