Houston Astros vs Kansas City Royals: Seth Lugo Under 16.5 Pitcher - Outs (-128)

Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing

Seth Lugo has been solid this season, but he's facing a tough matchup against the Houston Astros. The Astros have been hitting well against left-handed pitchers, managing a batting average that matches the league average against them. With Minute Maid Park's high altitude helping the ball fly, this could make things tricky for Lugo. While our numbers give this bet a good chance, there is a risk here since both teams have been inconsistent lately, each winning only four of their last ten games. Lugo might find it challenging to get through six innings with the Astros swinging confidently, so taking the under on his outs seems like a smart play.
