Spencer Horwitz under 0.5 hitsL

Sep 25, 2026 ET · Odds at publication 1.9000

Read original reasoning

Horwitz posts a .247 BA and 0.738 OPS vs RHP this season — one of the weaker contact profiles in the PIT lineup against right-handed pitching. BvP vs Jobe in 2026: 0-for-3, 0.000 OPS (small 3 PA sample, note accordingly). Jobe is in his best stretch of the season with 9K, 8K, 7K in consecutive starts. Hitless outcomes for Horwitz against elite-form RHP are fully supported by both his season split and the limited BvP exposure.

Sep 16, 2026 ET · Odds at publication 1.9100

Read original reasoning

Horwitz is 0-for-6 career vs Henderson — 3 PA in 2025 (0.333 OPS) and 3 PA in 2026 (0.000 OPS), zero hits in every appearance. That is the deepest BvP sample in the PIT lineup against this starter and it is entirely hitless. Season slash of .245/.344/.366 with an L28d OPS of .434 and L7d of .558 confirms a prolonged cold stretch. Henderson's 2.34 ERA and 10.1 K/9 form suppress contact across the board. Market prices under at -110 (52.4% implied) — conservative relative to what the BvP record and Henderson's elite form suggest.

Spencer Horwitz under 0.5 hitsL

Aug 25, 2026 ET · Odds at publication 2.3800

Read original reasoning

Horwitz is 0-for-5 lifetime vs Michael King (.000 AVG, 0.000 OPS across 5 PA spanning 2023 and 2026). His two most recent matchups in 2026 produced 0 hits in 2 PA. Season OPS of 0.751 is respectable but King has consistently dominated this matchup. L28d OPS of 0.374 shows Horwitz is in a cold stretch, compounding the BvP signal.
