Josh Lowe (TBR) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-2000)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Los Angeles Angels prepare to host the Atlanta Braves, all eyes will be on Josh Lowe, but betting on him to steal a base feels like a stretch in this matchup. Lowe has struggled to find his footing in the stolen base department, with just a handful of attempts this season. The Braves' pitching staff is known for its quick delivery to the plate, and with a formidable catcher behind the dish, running on them is a tall order.
Consider the Angels' recent trends; they’ve been more conservative on the base paths, particularly against teams with solid catchers like Atlanta’s. With an implied probability of 95.2% for Lowe to remain under 0.5 stolen bases, it’s hard to envision him breaking through. Given the Braves’ aggressive play and solid defensive mechanics, this bet is a compelling play to keep Lowe grounded on the bases.
