I.Happ Over0.5 Hitter Walks+105
1.05u
Happ has an elite 13.7% Walk Rate & that jumps to 16.5% vs RHP. He’ll see Walker Buehler who has struggled with control the past few seasons, especially vs LHBs (4.91 BB/9 since 2025). The expected Umpire is also hitter friendly & Happ has an increased chance of 5+ PAs on the road which are both little boosts.
