Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The under 0.5 stolen bases bet for Jackson Merrill in the San Diego Padres vs Arizona Diamondbacks game is statistically sound based on his recent performances. Over his last five games, Merrill's stolen base average is only 0.2, indicating that he rarely steals bases. This trend is even more pronounced in home games, where his stolen base average drops to zero. When playing against the Diamondbacks, Merrill has not managed to steal a base in his last five encounters. Furthermore, Merrill is not currently on a hitting streak, which could potentially increase his base stealing opportunities. This lack of momentum, coupled with his low base stealing averages, make it highly unlikely for Merrill to steal a base in the upcoming game. Therefore, the under 0.5 stolen bases bet is a strong choice.
