Coby Mayo (NA) Under 0.5 Singles (-200)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Red Sox gear up to face the Orioles in this intriguing matchup, keep a keen eye on Coby Mayo when it comes to singles. While Mayo has shown promise with his power, the recent trends suggest he might struggle to find the gaps against the Red Sox's pitching. Boston's staff has been overpowering, particularly at home, where they boast a strikeout rate that hovers around 25%.
Moreover, Mayo’s recent performances indicate a tendency to whiff rather than connect solidly, especially against right-handed pitchers, and with the way the Red Sox are firing on all cylinders, the odds lean heavily towards him being held to a quiet night. With a model prediction underscoring his chances for a single at just 0.13, taking the ‘Under’ on 0.5 singles for Mayo seems like a smart play as the Red Sox look to stifle the Orioles' offense.
