Cleveland Guardians vs Chicago White Sox: Munetaka Murakami Over 0.5 Batter - Walks (+148)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
The Cleveland Guardians are playing well lately, winning 8 of their last 10 games. Their pitchers are striking out batters more than the league average, which puts pressure on opposing hitters. Meanwhile, Munetaka Murakami has been a solid player, and while he's had a rough patch getting hits lately, he still has a good chance of drawing walks against the Chicago White Sox.
The White Sox's starting pitcher has been tough to hit against, allowing very few runs, so that is a real concern. However, with Murakami's ability to get on base and the Guardians' strong recent form, betting on him to walk at least once seems like a smart choice.
