The bet on Drew Waters for Under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a strong choice based on his recent performance data.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The bet on Maikel Garcia for Under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a good choice, considering his recent performance data. His average stolen bases over the last five games overall and away are 0.4 and 0.2 respectively, both falling under the line of 0.5. This trend is even more pronounced against the Padres, with an average of 0 stolen bases in the last five matchups. Additionally, his current overall hit streak is at zero, indicating a recent lack of opportunities to steal bases. In away games, his hit streak is only at two, still providing limited chances for base stealing.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The bet on Bobby Witt Jr. for under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a good choice based on his recent performance data. Witt Jr.'s last five games overall show an average stolen base rate of just 0.4, which is already below the line. This average drops even further to 0.2 when looking specifically at his last five away games. His current hit streak is non-existent overall and only at 2 for away games, indicating a recent struggle with getting on base, a prerequisite for stealing bases.
