Jake Smolinski Jersey , but the latest issue might not be as bad as initially anticipated.According to Jon Heyman of Fancred, the injury has been described as an inflamed nerve. Whilethe team originally feared a six-to-eight week timeline for his return, Heyman reported he could be back "much sooner."The pitcher missed about six weeks due to a shoulder injury before returning on July 20. He was then placed back on the DL last Thursday, retroactive to July 22, with a pinched nerve in his neck.He allowed six earned runs in 4.1 innings in a loss to the Atlanta Braves in his only start since early June.While another DL stint isn't ideal, at least the latest prognosis is a positive one for a player who has struggled to stay on the field throughout his career.Michael Ginnitti ofSpotrac provided a breakdown of Strasburg's injury history:Spotrac spotracWashington #Nationals SP Stephen Strasburg finds himself on the DL for the 12th time since joining the league back in 2009. Of his $80M made to date http://www.athleticsfanproshop.com/authentic-khris-davis-jersey , nearly $17M has been earned while injured.Considering he is in just the second season of a seven-year, $175 million deal, this is not a trend the Nationals want to see continue.What is even more disappointing is Strasburg's struggles when he is on the mound. In 14 starts this season, the 30-year-old has a 6-7 record with a 3.90 ERA, which would be a career-high for a season.With the rest of the Nationals rotation besides Max Scherzer also struggling with consistency, it's no wonder the team is just 52-53 this season despite high expectations.The squad will hope Strasburg can overcome the latest injury and provide much-needed help for the stretch run. The Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook posted numerous MLB props and futures for the 2019 season on Sunday.Included are the first season-long player props to hit the market: home run Chad Pinder Jersey , hit and pitcher win totals.Westgate surprised me on Sunday by not only posting win totals and division odds, but season-long player props.MLB Divisional Odds: Red Sox, Yankees Co-Favorites in AL EastRead nowOver the next month, we’ll surely see some more books start posting these props and others (batting averages, RBI, pitcher strikeouts http://www.athleticsfanproshop.com/authentic-khris-davis-jersey , etc.), but I can’t just let these go by without giving some initial thoughts.Home Run TotalsFirst things first: season-long player props have a tendency to go under far more often than over. I’ll end up taking a handful of overs, but my portfolio will be heavily inundated with unders. That goes for home run props and everything else.Early totals that stick out to me:Eugenio Suarez Under 30.5Christian Yelich Under 28.5Jesus Aguilar Under 27.5Robinson Cano Over 18.5Keep an eye out for more picks and analysis in the coming weeks.Hit TotalsHit total over/unders aren’t really my cup of tea. In fact, I actually bet zero of them last year. Wish I had more insight for you here, but the selection of players is much less than the home run list and is comprised of hitters expected to bat in the 1-3 spot in the lineup.If you’re wondering why Mike Trout is so low on the list, remember that he walks all the time.He’s topped 154.5 in five of his seven seasons Blake Treinen Jersey , but it’s not a slam dunk on the over. If he misses a little bit of time with an injury, he’s going to have trouble hitting that number with walks accounting for ~20% of his plate appearances.Pitcher Win TotalsWin totals for pitchers are perhaps the flukiest of all baseball statistics. Just ask Jacob deGrom.You can do everything in your power to keep your team in the game, but get a loss or no decision. On the other hand, your offense can have your back and get you wins when you shouldn’t really deserve them.That’s how the pitcher with the best ERA (deGrom, 1.70) and the pitcher with the worst ERA (Lucas Giolito, 6.13) both ended up with 10 wins last season.Here are my off-the-top-of-my-head value picks Chris Hatcher Jersey , mostly based on injury risk or luck coming back to earth:Chris Sale under 15.5Blake Snell under 14.5Clayton Kershaw under 13.5Rich Hill under 10.5Once the entire market has its full list of offerings available, I will come out with more detailed analysis of all my favorite player props and futures.
