Colton Cowser (NA) Under 0.5 Hits (-110)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Astros gear up to face the Orioles, all eyes will be on Colton Cowser. While he’s shown flashes of talent, his recent struggles at the plate indicate a tough outing may be on the horizon. Over the past week, Cowser has been mired in a slump, failing to find his rhythm against right-handed pitching—a critical factor since Houston's starter is a formidable righty.
Moreover, the Astros’ pitching staff has been nothing short of dominant, boasting one of the lowest ERAs in the league. They’re adept at neutralizing opposing hitters, which bodes well for them, especially at home. With Cowser’s current form and Houston's ability to stifle bats, betting on him to go under 0.5 hits feels like a smart play. The odds reflect a keen sense of this matchup, and all signs point to a quiet night for Cowser at Minute Maid Park.
