Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The bet on Reese Olson for Over 2.5 in the Pitcher Hits Allowed market is a good choice based on his recent performance data. His overall average of hits allowed in the last five games is 5, which is significantly above the line of 2.5. This pattern continues at home games, where his average hits allowed is also 5. Furthermore, Olson's average innings pitched is less than 5, both overall and at home, indicating that he tends to allow more than 2.5 hits in less than a full game. His current hit streak is 5 overall and 2 at home, which suggests a consistency in allowing hits. Despite performing slightly better against the Blue Jays (average 1.7 hits), the overall and home averages still indicate a strong likelihood of exceeding 2.5 hits.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The bet on Zach McKinstry for Under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is statistically sound due to his recent performance data. McKinstry's last five games, whether overall, at home, or against the Toronto Blue Jays, indicate a low propensity for stolen bases. His overall and home stolen base averages are zero, and even against the Blue Jays, his stolen base average is only 0.2. Additionally, no caught stealing instances have been recorded, indicating that McKinstry is not typically making attempts to steal bases. Despite his impressive hit streaks, these do not translate into stolen bases. Therefore, based on his recent performance, it's statistically unlikely that McKinstry will steal a base in the upcoming game.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The bet on George Springer for Under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a solid choice due to his recent performance data. His last five games overall and away games show an average stolen base (SB) rate of just 0.4, marginally below the line of 0.5. Even more compelling, his last five games against the Detroit Tigers have resulted in zero stolen bases. Furthermore, his current hit streak both overall and away is only at 1, suggesting he may not be at his peak performance. Additionally, there are no average caught stealing (Cs) instances in the past five games, indicating that he is not taking risks on the bases. These statistics collectively suggest that the probability of Springer stealing a base in this game is low, making the Under 0.5 bet a strong choice.
