Pete Crow-Armstrong (NA) Under 1.5 Doubles (-1667)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the San Francisco Giants host the Chicago Cubs, all eyes will be on Pete Crow-Armstrong, but betting on him to exceed 1.5 doubles feels like a gamble that just doesn’t add up. Crow-Armstrong has shown flashes of brilliance, yet facing the Giants’ pitching staff is no picnic. With a collective ERA that hangs around the low threes, and a keen ability to limit extra-base hits, the Giants create a tough environment for any hitter.
Adding to the narrative, Crow-Armstrong has been hovering around a .250 batting average against lefties—an area where the Giants excel with their southpaw lineup. Despite his potential, the odds are stacked against him today, especially given that the model indicates he’s more likely to end up with a solitary two-bagger than multiple. With the odds heavily favoring the under, this is a matchup where patience pays off.
