Nick Kurtz is swinging one of the hottest bats in baseball, and he should be looking forward to Friday’s matchup against Astros right-handed starter Ryan Gusto.
Kurtz is working on an 11-game hit streak, posting seven multi-hit games during the stretch with five homers.
He’s destroyed righties this year (.454 wOBA, .370 ISO) and has eclipsed 1.5 HRRs in 13 of his past 14 games.
Pick: Nick Kurtz Over 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-120, DraftKings)
