Puig also appears on Bovada.lv’s list of prop bets available for the 2015 season. They’ve set his over/under totals at .299 batting average, 22.5 home runs, 80.5 RBIs and 95.5 runs scored.



Gonzalez’s over/unders are 100.5 RBIs, .290 batting average and 24.5 home runs. Gonzalez led the Majors last season with 116 RBIs and hit .276 after batting .293 in 2013. He’s driven in at least 101 runs in each of the last five seasons.

Bovada has Kershaw’s over/unders at 18.5 wins, 2.20 ERA and 235.5 strikeouts. He’s only surpassed 235 strikeouts twice in his career — 2011 and 2014. While Kershaw posted consecutive seasons with a sub-2.00 ERA, it was never lower than 2.28 from 2008-2012.

Meanwhile Greinke’s other set of over/unders are 15 wins, 3.05 ERA and strikeouts 189.5. Since signing with the Dodgers, Greinke’s ERA has been below 3.00 in two consecutive seasons for the first time in his career.

The final Dodgers pitcher to appear on Bovada’s over/unders is Brandon McCarthy, set at 11 wins. As for position players, Jimmy Rollins over/under batting average is set at .290 by Bovada and 24.5 stolen bases. Rollins last hit above .290 in 2007, which was his MVP season and he’s one year removed from having swiped 28 bags.

Carl Crawford’s and Howie Kendrick’s over/unders for batting average is set at .285 and .289, respectively. Crawford hit .300 in 105 games last season, but hit below .285 from 2011-2013.
