The Cincinnati Reds and Washington Nationals clash today in a game with multiple player props offering strong value. With three hitters showing base totals near or above the 2.0 mark, this matchup is especially enticing for total base bettors. Here’s a look at where the sharpest value lies for CJ Abrams, James Wood, and Austin Hays.
Game Preview: Reds vs Nationals Player Prop Bets
Both the Reds and Nationals rank in the middle of the pack in scoring but bring intriguing splits against right-handed pitching. CJ Abrams and James Wood continue to lead Washington’s offensive production, while Austin Hays has emerged as a consistent contributor for Cincinnati. With all three players showing positive trends or exploitable lines, this is a game worth targeting.

Reds vs Nationals: Player Props
CJ Abrams Player Prop
Abrams is averaging 1.93 bases per game and has gone over this line in 6 of his last 8 starts. With consistent multi-base efforts and a recent surge in extra-base hits, Abrams provides strong value even money.
- Season Average: 1.93 total bases
- Recent Game Log: 6 of last 8 over 1.5 bases
- Line: Over 1.5 (+100), Under 1.5 (-130)
- Best Value: Over 1.5 at +125 (BetRivers)
- Trend: Multiple 4-base games over past 10

James Wood Player Prop
Despite a season average of 1.95 bases, Wood has only cleared the 1.5 mark once in his last 10 games. The upside is there, but inconsistency and a lack of recent power production make this a volatile pick, especially at plus money.
- Season Average: 1.95 total bases
- Recent Game Log: 1 of last 10 over 1.5 bases
- Best Value: Over 0.5 at -180 (Hard Rock)
- Risk Flag: Six straight games with 0 bases prior to July 20

Austin Hays Player Prop
Hays has quietly delivered a 2.02 base-per-game average and exploded for 8 bases against the Mets on July 18. While his recent form is streaky, he’s hit the over in 5 of his last 9 games, including a string of two-base efforts. If he remains in a favorable lineup spot, there’s sneaky value here.
- Season Average: 2.02 total bases
- Recent Game Log: 5 of last 9 over 1.5 bases
- Best Value: Over 1.5 at +130 (Hard Rock)
- Note: Strong performance vs. LHP boosts upside
