Shota Imanaga MLB Preview & Props
Shota Imanaga has quietly become a bankroll booster this season. The rookie southpaw owns a sub-3.00 ERA, elite 30% strikeout rate, and commands both edges with that splitter-slider combo. Books still misprice his totals, handing us plus odds on modest strikeout ladders and earned-run unders. Ride the market inefficiency before oddsmakers fully adjust. Profit while the value stays overlooked daily.
