Zach McKinstry (DET) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-1111)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The under 0.5 bet for Zach McKinstry in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a solid choice based on his recent performance data. Despite being on a 17-game overall hit streak and a 7-game home hit streak, McKinstry has not shown a propensity for stealing bases. In his last five games overall, at home, and against the Cincinnati Reds, he has averaged zero stolen bases. Additionally, he hasn't been caught stealing in these scenarios, further suggesting that stealing bases is not a significant part of his game strategy. Furthermore, the opposition hasn't caught any players stealing in the last five games, which indicates that the Reds' defense is not particularly vulnerable to stolen bases. This data suggests that McKinstry is not likely to steal a base in the upcoming game, making the under 0.5 bet a reasonable choice.
Matt McLain (CIN) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-667)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The under 0.5 bet for Matt McLain in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a good choice based on his recent performance data. Over the last five games, both overall and away, McLain's stolen base average is just 0.2, indicating a low frequency of stealing bases. Furthermore, his overall and away current hit streaks are only at 1, suggesting that he is not consistently getting on base to even have the opportunity to steal. Additionally, he has not been caught stealing in the last five games, which might suggest a cautious approach to base running. Therefore, the likelihood of McLain stealing a base in this game against the Detroit Tigers is statistically low, making the under 0.5 bet a sensible choice.
Elly De La Cruz (CIN) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-417)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The bet on Elly De La Cruz for under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is backed by his recent performance data. His last five games against the Tigers show an average of 0.6 stolen bases, which is below the line of 0.5. Also, when playing away, his stolen base average drops further to 0.7. Additionally, De La Cruz's current hit streak is at zero, both overall and away, which further reduces his chances of getting on base to potentially steal. The Tigers' average caught stealing rate (0.2) also suggests they have some ability to prevent stolen bases. These factors combined indicate a lower likelihood of De La Cruz stealing a base in the upcoming game, making the under 0.5 bet a statistically sound choice.
