Oneil Cruz (PIT) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-417)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The under 0.5 stolen bases bet for Oneil Cruz in the Pittsburgh Pirates vs New York Mets game is a good choice based on Cruz's recent performance data. Over his last five games, Cruz has an average of 0.4 stolen bases, both overall and at home, indicating he doesn't frequently steal bases. Furthermore, his stolen base average against the Mets specifically is 0, suggesting he's even less likely to steal a base in this matchup. His current hit streak of 2 games overall and 1 at home does not necessarily translate into stolen base opportunities. With no recent caught stealing incidents either overall or at home, it's clear that Cruz is not taking many risks on the bases. Therefore, the probability of him stealing a base in this game is statistically low, supporting the under 0.5 bet.

Francisco Lindor (NYM) Over 0.5 Hits (-278)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Francisco Lindor's recent performance data makes a strong case for a bet on Over 0.5 in the Batter Hits market. His overall average hits in the last five games stand at 1.8, indicating a high probability of at least one hit in the upcoming game. This is further supported by his average plate appearances (PA), which are 4.6 overall and 5 when playing away, giving him ample opportunities to hit. Lindor also has an impressive current hit streak, with 3 hits overall and 5 away, demonstrating consistent performance. His averages against the opposition and while playing away, though slightly lower, are still above the 0.5 line. These statistics suggest that Lindor is likely to maintain his hitting form in the upcoming game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
