Robinhood Derivatives has opened a set of event contracts that let traders bet on how many total bases individual players will record in the Milwaukee‑Tampa Bay matchup on Oct. 28, 2026.

Key points

  • Robinhood lists player‑specific total‑bases contracts for the Oct 28, 2026 Milwaukee‑Tampa Bay game.
  • Contracts settle based on the number of bases earned from hits; if a player does not record a plate appearance, the contract resolves to the last fair price.
  • Trading is open around the clock except for a short Thursday window, and payouts are usually processed within an hour of game resolution.
  • Insiders, league employees, and anyone with material non‑public information are barred from trading these contracts.

According to Robinhood’s prediction‑market platform, a series of contracts are available for the MLB game between Milwaukee and Tampa Bay on Oct. 28, 2026, each tied to a player’s total‑bases total – the sum of bases earned from hits.

The contracts define total bases in the standard baseball way: a single counts as one base, a double as two, a triple as three and a home run as four. Only hits count toward the total‑bases calculation; walks, hit‑by‑pitches and other outcomes are excluded.

How the Total Bases Contracts Work

Available contracts include Brice Turang 2+ total bases at a bid price of 99¢, Junior Caminero 2+ at 50¢, Cooper Pratt 2+ at 47¢, as well as Turang 3+ (35¢) and Turang 4+ (38¢). Prices are shown as bids; asks may be listed as 0¢, indicating a market maker is providing liquidity.

Trading runs 24 hours a day, except for a brief window on Thursdays from 3 AM‑5 AM ET. The contracts resolve on the event day, with payouts typically issued within an hour after the game’s outcome is confirmed.

Trading Hours and Settlement

Robinhood’s terms prohibit current players, coaches, staff, owners, league employees, their household members and anyone holding material non‑public information from trading these contracts. The platform also notes that futures, options on futures and cleared swaps involve significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors.

To place a trade, users must sign up on Robinhood, download the app or access the web platform, and agree to the full contract terms and risk disclosures before buying or selling any contract.
