Oneil Cruz (PIT) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-345)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The bet on Oneil Cruz for Under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a good choice based on Cruz's recent performance data. His last five games show an overall stolen base average of 0.4, which is less than the line of 0.5. This trend is even more pronounced in away games, with a stolen base average of only 0.2. Additionally, his current hit streaks, both overall and away, are relatively low, suggesting that he may not be on base frequently enough to attempt a stolen base. Furthermore, Cruz has not been caught stealing in recent games, indicating he may be cautious about attempting steals. This conservative base running strategy combined with his lower hit streaks and stolen base averages make the Under 0.5 bet a statistically sound choice.
