Naylor has yet to log an RBI or run scored so no surprise, he’s gone 0-7 in clearing this HRR line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now Naylor has to deal with Reid Detmers who he’s gone 2-10 (.200) against with three strikeouts. Detmers wasn’t very sharp in his first outing of the 2026 campaign against the Houston Astros as he allowed 3 earned runs on 6 hits across 4.2 innings of work. However, it was encouraging that Detmers didn’t allow a single free pass while striking out 9 batters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is Naylor’s first road game and getting out of Seattle may help him get back on track. However, I’m fading him until he proves me wrong especially in a batter vs pitcher matchup that he’s struggled with in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Juan Soto has covered this line in each of his last five games and in 6\/7 games on the season while landing on one HRR exactly in the lone game where he fell short.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now Soto gets another opportunity to feast on Tyler Mahle who he’s gone 4-11 (.364) against with two home runs and a double. Mahle did pitch very well at home last season but he’s coming off a mediocre start where he allowed 2 earned runs on 5 hits across 4 innings of work against the New York Yankees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mahle relies heavily on a fastball that he’s thrown on 61.4% of his pitches and Soto has posted a barrel-rate at close to 20% against that pitch. Soto has also had success against multiple San Francisco Giants relievers in a short sample size including Ryan Walker (2-5 2HR), Keaton Winn (1-4 HR), Ryan Borucki (1-1) and Blade Tidwell (1-1).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Soto is projected to bat second on the road where he will be guaranteed a full 9 innings of at-bats and he already beat this line in the first game of this series.<\/p>\n\n\n\nMLB Player Props Today for Friday: Josh Naylor (SEA) UNDER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBI at LA Angels (-102)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
