Will Benson (CIN) Under 1.5 Hits (-286)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The Under 1.5 bet for Will Benson is a strong choice based on his recent performance data. Over the last five games, Benson's overall and away batting averages have been low at 0.2 hits per game, well under the line of 1.5. This trend continues even when considering his plate appearances, with averages of 2.8 overall and 1.8 away, indicating a low hit rate. His performance against the Oakland Athletics also supports this bet, with an average of 0.7 hits over the last five games. Despite his impressive hit streaks, the low hit and plate appearance averages suggest Benson is unlikely to exceed 1.5 hits in the upcoming game. Therefore, the Under 1.5 bet is statistically justified.
