In last night’s game three the Texas Rangers came into Chase Field and grabbed a win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Texas is currently leading the series two games to one heading into a pivotal bullpen game for both teams. In this article we’re going to cover all of our favorite plays from DraftKings for game four.

Heading into tonight’s bullpen game, the Arizona Diamondbacks are currently the favorite. It feels like it’s been an eternity since the Diamondbacks have been the favorite heading into a game. Arizona has a money line set at -115 with Mantiply starting things off. Despite Arizona being the favorite, Texas isn’t in the plus money. The Rangers have a money line set at -105 with Andrew Heany starting things off. When there was a bullpen game in the NLCS, the Diamondbacks arm barn gave up five runs to the Phillies in a 6-5 win in Arizona. The Rangers, however, didn’t have the same story. Texas’s bullpen game featured a 10-3 loss for the Rangers, and they threw six arms throughout the game. For tonight’s game, I like the Diamondbacks bullpen to grab the win over the Rangers bullpen. Texas’s bullpen has been throwing well throughout this series, but I think tonight will be a different story. You can only have so much success against the same lineup until they get to you.
Pitcher Props
As far as pitcher props go, it is a little difficult to judge. The last time Mantiply started a game was game four in the NLCS, and he only threw one inning. Tonight could for sure be different, we never know. I do however like Mantiply over 0.5 strikeouts at plus money. Even if he only throws one inning, there are some guys in the top half of the Rangers lineup that strikeout a bit. I also love Andrew Heany under 9.5 outs recorded. I can’t see him going into the third inning. Heany is a huge part of the Rangers bullpen, and they need to save some of his juice for the rest of the series. I don’t think Bochy will allow the Diamondbacks to get that many looks off Heany. Additionally, the last time Heany started a game was in game four of the ALCS, and he only recorded two outs in his start.
Hitter Props
As for as hitter props go, there’s a couple I really like. Gabriel Moreno is a guy that has been struggling a bit throughout this series, but I think he comes alive tonight. The Diamondbacks catcher plays big in big games, and tonight’s a big one. Arizona can’t afford to go down three games to one. With the Rangers bullpen going tonight, I think the Dbacks bats will come alive. I like Moreno over 1.5 total bases. Moreno has so much pop in his bat, he can grab over that in one swing. Now looking at guys who have faced Heany, Christian Walker’s numbers stand out to me. Walker has seen Heany three times and has hit two home runs off of him, with four total RBIs. Now, I’m not saying bet on Walker to hit a home run, but I like his over on 0.5 RBIs. The top half of the Diamondbacks order is playing good baseball and with their speed, a base hit scores. Ketel Marte is obviously getting some coin on him. He has a hits line set at 1.5 and if you think maybe that’s a little too high, take the 1+ alternative. That’s a bet I will be riding until the streak is over. Marte has been so electric and an absolute wagon for the burn city best bets.
