Top MLB Betting Trends for Thursday, August 24

1. Brandon Belt (TOR) To Record a Hit

Frequency: 12 of last 14 games
Odds: -180

Let's go right back to a guy who cashed for us last night as he gets another solid matchup against an Orioles starter. Brandon Belt is one of the best hitters lately for the Blue Jays and has been a solid addition to the roster since coming over from the Giants. He's got a hit in four straight and six of his last seven. He's hitting .317 in the month of August. He hits .257 off righties like the O's' Kyle Gibson, who is allowing a .307 batting average to left-handed batters.

 

2. Matt McLain (CIN) To Get a Hit

Frequency: 9 of last 12 games
Odds: -195

One of the best rookies in all of MLB, Matt McClain might even be outperforming his sensational and talented rookie teammate Elly De La Cruz. McLain boasts a .297 batting average which is absolutely stellar for a rookie batter. He's picked up 22 total hits this month, with just two separate instances where he went back-to-back games without a knock. He's up against the D-Backs' Merril Kelly who has allowed at least five hits in five straight starts. 

 

3. Ezequiel Duran (TEX) To Record a Hit

Frequency: 8 of last 11 games
Odds: -215

For the final trend, we turn to a Twins-Rangers clash and take hard-hitting shortstop Ezequiel Duran to pick up a knock. He's got 14 total hits in this 11-game span and his .288 batting average in August is right in line with his season-long mark of .287. That's simply pure consistency. He crushes righthanders like the Twins' Pablo Lopez who he'll face tonight, boasting a .281 average and .430 SLG.

Remember to gamble responsibly and set limits on your betting activities. It's important to approach sports betting as a form of entertainment, rather than relying on it for financial gain. Set a budget for yourself and stick to it, and never bet more than you can afford to lose. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, crisis counseling and referral services can be accessed by calling 1-800-GAMBLER.
