Odds as of May 8th.
Stanton to The Max
The 12-game hitting streak of New York Yankees’ designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton came to an end on Friday against the Washington Nationals. However, Nats starter Max Scherzer is an ideal opponent to get Stanton fired up again.

Stanton is batting .294 (5-for-17) against Scherzer. Most notable, though, are his two home runs during those 17 at-bats.
- Pick: Giancarlo Stanton 1+ home run (+310)
