There is a value opportunity on Griffin Jax's pitching outs prop. THE BAT X is projecting him to record 10.71 pitching outs, while oddsmakers are implying 12.32. The model believes there is a 75% chance he records fewer than 13 pitching outs, so there is value on the under at -112. This play is good down to at least -216. Love THE BAT X?
