As player prop betting gains traction, the demand for walk props has surged. A recent analysis of probable starters reveals insightful trends in walk and ball rates, helping bettors find softer markets. Notably, Jose Soriano and Carson Palmquist stand out with impressive walk rates against strong opposition. The analysis suggests a favorable betting outlook for several pitchers, particularly with expectations of multiple walks from Soriano, Palmquist, Quinn Priester, and Grant Holmes.

With the market increasingly leaning towards player props, focusing on individual players' performance metrics could yield profitable opportunities. A three-leg parlay focusing on over 1.5 walks for the chosen pitchers presents intriguing value, especially in light of their consistent performance data against various offensive ranks.

The Atlanta Braves aim to build on their recent momentum as they face the Milwaukee Brewers tonight at American Family Field. The Braves snapped a seven-game losing streak with a decisive 7-1 victory over the Brewers, showcasing their power with three home runs in the process. This win comes as they look to improve their record (28-37) against a Brewers team that currently stands at 35-32.

Grant Holmes, the Braves' starting pitcher, enters the game with a 3-4 record and a 3.99 ERA, while Quinn Priester for the Brewers holds a 3-2 record with a 3.88 ERA. The matchup is significant, as both teams seek to capitalize on the other's recent struggles. The Braves’ offense looks to continue their recent success, especially with their last five games against the Brewers trending towards high-scoring outcomes. With the odds favoring the Braves slightly at -121, this matchup promises to be an exciting one for bettors and fans alike.

In the latest installment of the 'Are You For Real?' series, we evaluate starting pitchers who have surprised this season. Week 9 of 2025 offers intriguing options for fantasy players looking to enhance their roster. Quinn Priester of the Milwaukee Brewers showcased his potential with a strong outing against the Pirates, while Edward Cabrera of the Miami Marlins impressed with a dominant performance against the Angels. Similarly, Shane Baz of the Tampa Bay Rays delivered a solid start against the Blue Jays. But are any of these pitchers truly fantasy material, or are they just passing fads?

Quinn Priester has been inconsistent, posting a 4.66 ERA overall despite a stellar 6 IP, 1 ER outing recently. His repertoire, primarily a sinker and slider, has had mixed results. Meanwhile, Edward Cabrera has shown flashes of brilliance, striking out 10 batters in his last game, yet his overall 5.50 ERA raises questions. Finally, Shane Baz's recent improvement may signal a turnaround, but his tendency to allow hard contact and a high HR/FB rate casts doubt on his long-term viability as a fantasy asset.

The recent trade that brought Quinn Priester to the Milwaukee Brewers has concluded with the Red Sox acquiring right-handed pitcher John Holobetz as the player to be named later. Priester, who's been filling in the rotation after Nestor Cortes' injury, has a 5.79 ERA over five games with the Brewers. Holobetz, initially a 5th round pick in 2024, showed promise with a 3.00 ERA in Low-A and is seen as a potential lottery ticket for Boston.

This trade highlights the Brewers' aim to bolster their starting rotation amidst injury struggles, as they navigate the season with renewed focus on their pitching depth.

The Milwaukee Brewers are grappling with significant injuries in their starting rotation, losing key pitchers like Brandon Woodruff and Aaron Civale, leaving their lineup in a precarious position. The team's recent acquisition of Quinn Priester from the Boston Red Sox, despite the hefty cost, reflects their faith in his potential to stabilize the rotation. However, Priester's struggles were evident in his latest outing against the Cubs, where he was rocked for seven runs in a single inning, contributing to a 10-0 loss.

Manager Pat Murphy acknowledged the team's morale is low, emphasizing the challenge of relying on inexperienced pitchers in critical situations. The Brewers have yet to win a game when their opponent scores first, raising concerns about their competitiveness. With another game approaching, they hope Jose Quintana can help turn their fortunes around. The road ahead looks tough as they aim to regroup and find their footing in the season.
