Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
Betting on Esmerlyn Valdez to steal a base at these odds looks like a fun gamble. The White Sox have scored a bit more than the Pirates on average lately, and Valdez might have a chance to take advantage of that. While he hasn't been getting hits and isn't striking out much, sometimes players can surprise you when the game is on the line.
The biggest worry here is that Valdez has been quiet at the plate, averaging no hits in his last three games. Still, if he gets on base, he's got the speed to make a move. With the White Sox's recent hitting form, there's a chance for him to make a play and add some excitement to the game.
