Ceddanne Rafaela (BOS) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-556)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The under 0.5 stolen bases bet for Ceddanne Rafaela is statistically sound due to several factors. First, Rafaela's last five games show an average of 0.4 stolen bases, both overall and specifically when playing away. This suggests he is less likely to steal a base in an away game. Furthermore, his stolen base average against the Mariners is also 0.4, indicating a low likelihood of a stolen base in this particular match-up. Additionally, his current overall hit streak is 0, and his away hit streak is just 1, indicating a recent lack of opportunities to steal bases. Finally, the average of caught stealing (Cs) is zero, which suggests that when Rafaela does attempt to steal, he is successful, but these attempts are infrequent. All these factors contribute to the statistical reasoning that Rafaela is unlikely to steal more than 0.5 bases in the upcoming game.
