By Derek Carty

THE BAT X is forecasting 15.45 pitching outs for Andrew Abbott compared to 17.76 pitching outs implied by the oddsmakers, so I believe there is value here. If you take the under, you’d be projected to win 65% of the time, resulting in a 50% ROI. Based on a $100 wager, the expected value here would be $50.05.
