+130O/U: 8
(-110/-110)-150

Zach McKinstry – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-160/+125)
Zach McKinstry is penciled in 5th on the lineup card today, which would be an upgrade from his 94% rate of hitting in the bottom-half of the lineup this season.
Explain: The higher in the order a player bats, the more plate appearances he will get and the more opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits higher in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting lower.

Paul Skenes – Over/Under 15.5 Pitching Outs (-115/-115)
Paul Skenes has been given a longer leash than the average pitcher this year, tallying 6.8 more adjusted pitches-per-game than the average starter.
Explain: Pitchers with a longer leash are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
Pittsburgh Pirates – 2H Moneyline
According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Pittsburgh Pirates’ bullpen profiles as the 8th-best among all MLB teams.
Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a strong bullpen sneakily creates a tougher matchup for the opposing offense and suppresses a game’s runs.
