THE BAT X is forecasting 1.54 walks allowed for Gage Jump compared to 1.92 walks allowed implied by the oddsmakers, so I believe there is value here. If you take the under, you'd be projected to win 54% of the time, resulting in a 33% ROI. Based on a $100 wager, the expected value here would be $32.86. This play is good down to at least +104.
