New York Yankees vs Tampa Bay Rays: Anthony Volpe Over 1.5 Batter - Strikeouts (+469)
Odds correct at time of publishing
Anthony Volpe has been striking out about 1.3 times per game recently, which shows he can get caught up in tough at-bats. The Yankees are on a good run, winning four out of their last six games, and Volpe has a chance to keep that momentum going. The wind is blowing out toward the outfield, which can help hitters like him, but it also means pitchers might have to throw more strikes.
The Rays' pitching staff isn't walking many batters this year, which means Volpe might see a lot of pitches in the strike zone. While he has a decent chance to strike out two or more times, keep in mind the Rays can be tough on hitters. Betting on him to go over 1.5 strikeouts could pay off nicely, but it's not a sure thing.
