Best Guardians-Diamondbacks Bet: Corbin Carroll
Corbin Carroll is becoming one of the brightest stars in the MLB. At just 22 years old, he is walking away with the NL Rookie of the Year and is sure to represent the Arizona Diamondbacks in the All-Star Game, along with ace Zac Gallen. Corbin has not just showcased his speed on the basepaths with his 19 stolen bases, but he has also proven that he has pop off the bat. He has hit 15 home runs, three triples and 18 doubles.
Carroll will take on rookie Tanner Bibbee, who is coming off his worst start as a professional. Bibee gave up six runs on eight hits against the San Diego Padres, allowing three extra-base hits. He has been solid against left-handed hitters by holding them to a .225 batting average, but Carroll is simply different. He is mashing right-handed pitching to a .400 average in June.
Carroll has cashed this prop in 18 of his last 30 games and is fresh off going yard last night. With how lethal the Diamondbacks lineup is, Carroll could very well see five plate appearances Sunday.
