Detroit Tigers vs Los Angeles Dodgers: Alek Thomas Under 0.5 Batter - Runs Scored (-256)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The odds are offering a chance for Alek Thomas to score less than half a run in this game against the Detroit Tigers. He hasn't been hitting well lately, with his hits ranging from 0 to just 2 over his last ten games. This kind of inconsistency makes it tough to expect him to cross the plate today.
The Tigers have had a rough time lately, winning only 2 of their last 10 games. While they have hit okay against left-handed pitchers, their overall performance at home is just average. With the pressure of the game and Thomas's recent struggles, this bet seems pretty solid. The biggest risk is that Thomas could surprise us, but given what we've seen, it's hard to count on him to score.
