David Hamilton (BOS) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-909)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Milwaukee Brewers gear up to face the Toronto Blue Jays, all eyes will be on David Hamilton, but betting on him to steal a base might not be the best move. With the Brewers’ lineup currently focusing on power bats, Hamilton has found himself less involved in the running game. In fact, he’s only swiped a base in 8% of his appearances this season.
Meanwhile, the Blue Jays possess a solid defensive battery, with their pitchers holding runners well. Toronto’s rotation has consistently limited steal attempts, proving tough for even the most aggressive baserunners. Hamilton's recent trends, coupled with the Blue Jays' ability to control the running game, suggest that expecting him to snag even one stolen base is a stretch. Betting the under seems wise here, as the odds favor a game more focused on power than speed.
