Betting Analyst
Valente Bellozo has thrown a first-pitch ball against 37 of 76 batters faced, and the lack of a strikeout pitch is why his xFIP is nearly six runs per nine innings. Bellozo is primarily a fly-ball pitcher with a high hard contact rate on a short leash. Chicago slashes .247/.324/.427 with a .751 OPS against righties and has several lefty bats who will help send Bellozo packing early. It's a great price on a market Bellozo has cleared once in five starts.
