We had a nice 2u day yesterday so I’m willing to bet on Paul Skenes today. They gave him the extra rest off after his last outing, and we get to get his line at 5.5. It’s probably going to close at 6.5 once we get closer to game time. We’re actually going to take it up there because we project him at 7. I get how I looked last time, but again, this is a guy that has a 28% whiff rate, a 30% K rate, and almost 15% swinging straight up. It’s Skenes. He’s too good, and Detroit really struggles way more versus righties than lefties. They’re a top-10 K-rate team in the league. Most of their guys are in the 20% K rate versus righties, and this is too good a matchup to not take Skenes on.
Paul Skenes PIT O 5.5k -158 1u DK and O 6.5k +145 1u DK
