PrizePicks MLB Tonight: Max Muncy Folds in Philly
Max Muncy More/Less 0.5 Total RBIs
Max Muncy is all power. Almost half of his hits this season have come via the home run ball. That just isn’t sustainable, and the metrics suggest Muncy is bound to struggle today. He faces off against RHP Taijuan Walker and his 2.67 home ERA. The two have matched up multiple times in their careers, with the advantage going to Walker. In 11 career at-bats, Muncy only has one hit.
Muncy struggles even more on the road. He’s hitting .176 away from Dodgers stadium and could potentially be pulled from the game if the Phillies go to a left-handed reliever.

Randal Grichuk More/Less 1.5 Total Bases
Randal Grichuk of the Colorado Rockies will have his hands full come Sunday. He’ll go against LHP Blake Snell, who has reverse splits. Right-handed batters are hitting only .212 off Snell, and he’s cruising as of late by allowing less than two earned runs in his last three starts.
Like Walker and Muncy, Snell and Grichuk go way back. They’ve faced each other 31 times, with Grichuk only ripping off five total hits.

Brian Anderson More/Less 0.5 Total Bases
It hasn’t been great for Brian Anderson against lefties to start his 2023 campaign. After hitting .247 against lefties last season, he’s hovering near .170 this year. But all he needs is one hit today. He’ll take on JP Sears, who has a 4.72 xERA. Sears is projected to pitch into the sixth inning today and then will hand the ball over to the Oakland bullpen and its league-high 5.95 ERA.

Manny Machado More/Less 1.5 Total Bases
Manny Machado is crushing the ball as of late. He’s hitting .318 against righties in June and has seven hits in his last three games. That includes tying a season high with three hits yesterday at Coors Field. RHP Dinelson Lamet will be wishing he wasn’t slated to start against this loaded Padres lineup that is hitting .256 against righties in June. Machado has cashed in on this play in eight of his last 12 games at Coors Field.
