Freddy Fermin (NA) Under 1.5 Hits (-286)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Angels host the Padres, all eyes will be on Freddy Fermin, but betting on him to go over 1.5 hits feels like a stretch. Fermin has been battling through a rough patch, showing more whiffs than hits in recent games. Against the Angels’ ace, who has been sharp with a 2.50 ERA at home, Fermin might find himself struggling to find gaps.
Consider that the Padres' lineup has been inconsistent, especially against right-handed pitchers, ranking in the bottom tier for batting average this season. With pressure mounting and the Angels looking to bolster their playoff hopes, expect a tight game where every out counts. Fermin’s recent performance suggests he may continue to be stifled. With an implied probability of 74.1% for the under, this might just be the perfect spot to capitalize on his current slump.
