MLB player prop bets and odds for Bo Bichette on Wednesday, April 2, 2025, as the Toronto Blue Jays take on the Washington Nationals.

Today’s same-game parlay is brought to you by the Blue Jays' bats. The only Jays player arguably hotter than Springer is second baseman Andrés Giménez, who's hitting .333 with a 1.399 OPS through his five games this season, which includes recording a knock in all five and a team-leading three home runs.

MacKenzie Gore set the tone for the Nationals from the get-go on Thursday. He started the 2025 regular season by striking out Trea Turner on a perfectly placed low-and-inside 96 mph fastball.Little did we know at the time that would be the first of an Opening Day franchise-record 13 strikeouts he would record over his six brilliant innings.

The season is young, but there are already plenty of pitchers who put themselves on the radar. Whether they are young pitchers showing a new level, veterans adding a new wrinkle to their profile or healthy pitchers regaining their previous form,

Gore absolutely dominated an excellent Phillies lineup on Opening Day, dicing them up for 13 strikeouts in his six shutout innings, allowing just one hit and no walks. And he did it with a whole new approach that could help him solve his biggest issue so far in the majors, his struggles against left-handed hitters.

In his first Opening Day start, left-hander MacKenzie Gore set a Nationals franchise record and joined a Hall of Famer with 13 strikeouts in a dazzling six-inning, one-hit performance during a 7-3 loss to the Phillies on Thursday at Nationals Park.

For the second time already in this young season, the Nationals find themselves needing a win to avoid a series sweep. They managed to do it Sunday against the Phillies. Now they need to do it again against the Blue Jays.

Hosts Trevor Hooth and Nate Kosher bring insight and analysis of the prospects/rookies you need to know about this year to make an impact in your fantasy baseball leagues.
