The analyst pointed out Austin Riley as another Braves right-hander in a cushy spot against Zac Gallen. Riley owns a 5-for-12 lifetime line (.417) with a homer versus Gallen and is riding a heater with hits in seven of his last eight contests. Gallen’s overall numbers versus righties look solid, but his recent .324 average allowed and diminished curveball whiff rate hint that his command is slipping. That combo makes Riley’s total-base and HR props attractive—especially with Gallen’s launch-angle sweet spot sitting below league average, giving Riley, who already lives in the 10-25 degree range, a chance to elevate. The tout will wait for books to open but expects over 1.5 TB to hover near even money, which he’d gladly take.

It's The Final Round pointed to Austin Riley’s 3-for-6 lifetime (.500) versus Brayan Bello plus a current run of hits in 13 of his past 15 games as justification for using Riley in today’s batter prop or DFS pool.

Guy Boston said he is fading Austin Riley under 2.5 hits + runs + RBI on Thursday. The handicap leans heavily on Trevor Williams’ splits: a .205 batting average and .225 wOBA allowed to right-handed hitters this season with zero HR/9. Riley owns only 2 hits in 18 career plate appearances against Williams while striking out 44 %. Williams relies on sliders (40 %) and four-seamers (36 %), two pitches against which Riley’s wOBA plummets compared with his season baseline. Boston acknowledged Riley’s recent hot streak but trusts the combination of pitch mix, prior history, and Williams’ effectiveness versus righties to keep Riley below the 3 counting-stat threshold, even after Atlanta eventually reaches Washington’s shaky bullpen.

Coming off a two-homer night, Austin Riley was the only Braves bat singled out by Data Skrive ahead of Monday’s tilt with Cincinnati. Their model lays ‑147 on Atlanta but still projects Under 8.5 total runs, implying a low-scoring game where Riley supplies the thunder. Bettors can exploit that read by pairing a Braves ML ticket with a Riley HR prop instead of chasing the full-game Over, while DFS players get tournament-winning upside at third base.

It's The Final Round advised backing Austin Riley over 1.5 total bases or single-game DFS because German Marquez cannot locate anything. Marquez is permitting a .500 BA on his slider (4-for-8), .400 on the four-seam (4-for-10), .462 on the sinker (6-for-13), and .308 on the knuckle curve (4-for-13). Riley mashes all four: .333 BA vs sliders (4-for-12), .250 vs four-seams over a hefty 36-AB sample with power, .300 vs sinkers with two homers, and now faces a starter coming off injury and still searching for command. Riley is riding a heater with knocks in 15 of his last 18, so the tout projects multiple hard-hit balls and calls him a must in Braves stacks.

It's The Final Round likes Austin Riley to record a hit versus Feltner. Riley is 2-for-5 with a homer (.400) off the Rockies’ right-hander and has collected at least one base knock in 15 of his last 18 contests. That mix of recent consistency and decent BvP makes him a solid leg for single-stat overs or same-game hit parlays.

Austin Riley has 2 hits in 6 tries (.333) versus Merrill Kelly and is riding a 15-of-18 game hit stretch. The tout marked him as a total bases consideration, especially if his line opens at plus money.

Eric Lindquist flagged Austin Riley as a repeat home‑run target versus Andre Pallante despite a short price. Riley’s batted‑ball profile shows a 57.1% hard‑hit rate and a 25° average launch angle—ideal for lofting ground‑ball specialist Pallante. Lindquist admitted passing Monday cost him when Riley went yard and vowed to monitor pricing again Tuesday, willing to fire if books leave the number in the +350 range or better.

Austin Riley is 3‑for‑3 with a homer against Andre Palante and has hits in 10 of 12 games. The analyst likes him for total bases and DFS power upside.

Just A Bet Outside is bullish on Austin Riley given his scorching recent form and matchup against Chris Bassitt. Riley has been on fire lately, hitting .467 with four homers in the last seven days. Riley has delivered 3+ hits, runs, and RBIs in seven of his last eight games and 2+ total bases in eight of his last ten contests. Additionally, he has demonstrated success previously against Bassitt, going 3-for-11 with a home run, making him suitable in props markets today.

Dylan Rockford advised bettors to target a strikeout prop on Austin Riley against Jesus Luzardo due to Riley's plate aggressiveness and consistent strikeout tendencies. Contrary to Ozuna’s reputation, Riley actually leads Atlanta hitters in strikeouts this season with 16 already recorded, displaying vulnerability against high-strikeout pitchers. Luzardo’s dominant 19-strikeout rate over his first two starts makes Riley's strikeout prop betting an actionable and appealing wagering angle in this game.
