Ceddanne Rafaela (BOS) Under 1.5 Hits (-250)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Betting under 1.5 on Ceddanne Rafaela is a good choice based on his recent performance data. Over his last five games, his overall and home hits average is just 0.8, well below the line of 1.5. His plate appearance averages are also low, at 3.2 both overall and at home, indicating that he's not getting many opportunities to hit. Furthermore, his current overall hit streak is at zero, showing a recent struggle in his batting performance. Although his average against the Dodgers is higher at 1.7, his recent form suggests it's unlikely he will reach this level. Hence, the under 1.5 bet is statistically supported.

Will Smith (LAD) Under 1.5 Hits (-233)

The bet on Will Smith for Under 1.5 in the Batter Hits market is a sensible choice based on his recent batting performance. Smith's last five games show an average of only 1 hit overall and 0.6 hits when playing away, both figures are below the line of 1.5. Furthermore, his plate appearances (PA) average is 3.8 overall and 3.6 away, indicating that he's not getting as many opportunities to hit. Against the Red Sox, his hits average drops even further to 0.8. His current hit streak is at zero, both overall and away, suggesting he's in a slump. These statistics demonstrate a consistent pattern of Smith not hitting as frequently, especially when playing away games, making Under 1.5 a strong bet.

Freddie Freeman (LAD) Under 1.5 Hits (-233)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Freddie Freeman's recent performance data suggests a good rationale for betting on under 1.5 hits in the upcoming game. His last five overall hits average (0.8) and away hits average (0.4) are both below the 1.5 line, indicating he's not consistently hitting more than one time per game. Although he has a current hit streak, this only means he's getting at least one hit per game, not necessarily surpassing the 1.5 mark. His plate appearances (PA) averages, both overall (4.2) and away (4.2), show that he has limited opportunities to hit in each game. Even when considering his slightly higher hits average against the Red Sox (1.4), it's still below the 1.5 line. Therefore, the under 1.5 bet seems statistically justified based on Freeman's recent performance.

Ceddanne Rafaela (BOS) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-667)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The bet on Ceddanne Rafaela for Under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a smart choice based on the provided data. Rafaela's last five games show an average of 0.4 stolen bases overall and at home, which is below the bet line of 0.5. This indicates that Rafaela is not frequently stealing bases. Moreover, against the Los Angeles Dodgers, Rafaela's stolen base average is slightly higher at 0.7, but it's still not consistently over the bet line. Additionally, Rafaela's current hit streak is zero overall and only one at home, suggesting a slump in performance. With no caught stealing (Cs) instances in the last five games, this implies that Rafaela is not attempting many steals. Therefore, the statistical evidence supports the bet for Rafaela to have under 0.5 stolen bases in the upcoming game.
