Sal Stewart (NA) Under 1.5 Hits (-233)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Reds host the Guardians, all eyes are on Sal Stewart, but the expectations for his hitting might be a bit too high. Recent trends highlight Stewart's struggles against right-handed pitching, which makes the Guardians' starter particularly daunting. He’s been racking up strikeouts, and with the Reds' lineup faltering against pitchers with high strikeout rates, Stewart could find himself in a tough spot.
Furthermore, the Guardians are known for their solid defense, and they’ve limited opposing hitters effectively in July. With Stewart averaging less than half a hit per game against comparable pitchers, the odds favor the 'Under' on his hits. Given the statistical landscape and the way both teams have been performing, betting on Stewart to stay under the 1.5 mark feels like a savvy play. It’s a calculated risk that could pay off handsomely tonight.
