F.Valdez u5.5 Ks+100

FanDuel: Valdez tends to throw the ball in the zone at a high rate (46% was 3rd highest zone% last year) so he could struggle to rack up Ks against a CHW lineup that swings at a high rate and makes contact above league average. His easiest K victim is Romy Gonzalez, but since he’s hitting 9th and Valdez will likely have a 85-90 opening day pitch count, I’m only giving him a 20% chance of getting to face Romy a 3rd time. That’s offering some sneaky value to his under and I’m projecting him with a 60% chance to stay under 5.5
