The reads behind them

Angle 2

Bryson Stott Over 0.5 Walks

+196at DraftKings

  • Bryson Stott's BB% is 10.2% over 608 PA, against 8.6% for the position (70th percentile).

The case against

At +196 the price does this pick no favours, so it stands or falls on the form read.

The last ten (60%) sits a long way from the season rate (34%), so this leans on a streak continuing rather than on a settled level.
