Cal Raleigh (SEA) Under 1.5 Walks (-667)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As September rolls on, Cal Raleigh has been swinging a hot bat, but his plate discipline has been wavering lately. Facing the Angels, who boast a solid pitching rotation, Raleigh could struggle to find his way on base via walks. Over the last handful of games, he’s averaged just about one walk every four contests, and with the Angels’ starters limiting free passes, the odds are stacked against him reaching that 1.5 mark.
Moreover, Seattle's lineup has been more aggressive at the plate, which could constrict Raleigh's opportunities to draw a walk. He’s also up against a pitcher known for their control, making it even less likely he’ll get the chance to take a free ride. With the Mariners pressing for playoff positioning, expect Raleigh to put the ball in play rather than look for walks. Under 1.5 walks feels like the smart play here.
