Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The bet on Jack Flaherty for Over 0.5 in the Pitcher Walks Allowed market is statistically sound, as Flaherty's recent performance data indicates a tendency to allow walks, especially when playing away games. Over his last five games, Flaherty has averaged 1.8 walks overall and 2.6 walks when playing away. This suggests a pattern of control issues when pitching in unfamiliar environments. Furthermore, Flaherty's average innings pitched and outs recorded do not significantly decrease when playing away, indicating that he maintains a relatively consistent workload regardless of location. This means that he'll likely have ample opportunity to allow at least one walk. Finally, Flaherty's current away hit streak stands at 11, further emphasizing his difficulty in maintaining control when on the road. Therefore, the bet for Over 0.5 walks allowed by Flaherty is a good choice.

The under 0.5 bet for Brayan Rocchio in the Batter Walks market is a solid choice due to his recent performance data. Rocchio's last five games show a below-average walk rate, with an overall average of 0.4 walks per game and a home average of 0.2. Even more convincing is his performance against the Detroit Tigers, where he has not drawn a single walk in the last five games. His plate appearances (PA) also suggest a lower walk probability, with an overall average of 3.2 PA and a home average of 3.4 PA. His PA against the Tigers is even lower, at 1.6. Given these statistics, Rocchio's chances of drawing a walk are statistically low, making the under 0.5 bet a good choice.
