Boston singled out Cody Bellinger over 1.5 hits + runs + RBIs (or total bases) as his favorite Yankee prop. Bellinger owns a .390 average (7-for-18) with two RBIs and just a 15% K-rate in 20 career plate appearances versus Patrick Corbin. His 2025 splits versus left-handed pitching are elite—.298/.379/.571 with a 165 wRC+. Corbin, meanwhile, allows a .287 opponent average and .482 slug to lefty bats and ranks in the bottom 10% in hard-hit rate. Boston expects Bellinger to hit in the heart of an order that profiles perfectly against Corbin’s sinker/cutter/slider trio, forecasting multiple opportunities to clear the 1.5 benchmark.

Mo Nuwwarah identifies Cody Bellinger as a potentially sneaky home run bet despite his sluggish start to the season, which featured an elevated strikeout rate. Nuwwarah notes Yankee Stadium’s extremely favorable home run environment for left-handed hitters (124 park factor), amplified by a powerful 20 mph wind blowing out. Although facing fly-ball pitcher Michael Wacha might increase the risk of pop-ups, Bellinger's uppercut swing perfectly suits these conditions. Nuwwarah emphasizes that even a modest fly ball could exit the park in these conditions, making Bellinger an appealing value play due to his currently long odds relative to teammates.

Bryan Zarpentine likes Cody Bellinger's odds for at least two total bases on his Yankees debut against Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Freddy Peralta. Zarpentine highlights that Bellinger came off a scorching spring with a .423 batting average and a 1.214 OPS. Even more encouraging is his career history facing Peralta, where he's gone 5-for-12 including two extra-base hits, combined with the hitter-friendly advantages of playing at Yankee Stadium. Those factors make Bellinger's prop bet a valuable option at plus odds (+165).
