THE BAT X is forecasting 14.40 pitching outs for Keider Montero compared to 16.41 pitching outs implied by the oddsmakers, so I believe there is value here. If you take the under, you'd be projected to win 69% of the time, resulting in a 39% ROI. Based on a $100 wager, the expected value here would be $38.90. This play is good down to at least -171.
