Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The under 0.5 stolen bases bet for Jacob Young is backed by his recent performance data. His last five games show an average of only 0.2 stolen bases overall and the same average when playing away. This suggests that Young is not a frequent base stealer. Moreover, against the Dodgers, he has not stolen a base in his last five encounters, further strengthening the case for under 0.5 stolen bases. Additionally, the Dodgers have an average of 0.2 caught stealing per game, indicating that they have a decent defense against base stealing. The current hit streaks also do not strongly suggest a high probability of stolen bases in this game. Therefore, the statistical data supports the under 0.5 stolen bases bet for Jacob Young in this game.

The under 0.5 bet for Mookie Betts in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a strong choice considering his recent performance data. Over the last five games, Betts' overall stolen base average (batting) is only 0.2, which is also consistent with his home stolen base average. Furthermore, when specifically facing the Washington Nationals, his stolen base average remains at 0.2. This suggests a low likelihood of Betts stealing a base in the upcoming game. Additionally, there have been no instances of Betts being caught stealing in the last five games, indicating that he is not taking many risks on the bases. Therefore, based on his recent performance, it is statistically unlikely for Betts to steal a base in the upcoming game, making the under 0.5 bet a solid choice.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The rationale for betting on Tommy Edman for Under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is rooted in his recent performance data. Edman's last five games show no stolen bases overall and at home. Moreover, his average caught stealing (Cs) rate is also low, indicating he is not taking many risks on the base paths. Furthermore, his stolen base average against the Nationals (the opposing team) is only 0.2, suggesting he isn't particularly successful at stealing bases against this team. Despite his impressive hit streak, this does not correlate directly with stolen bases. Therefore, based on Edman's recent lack of stolen bases, low risk-taking on the base paths, and his specific performance against the opposing team, betting under 0.5 stolen bases is a statistically sound choice.
