    Los Angeles Angels pitcher Kenny Rosenberg.

    Aaron Judge no-showed on Wednesday night to cost us our Look of the Day, so we're searching for a bounce-back winner on Thursday's tiny MLB slate. Let's cash in on our favorite MLB bet of the day.

    Look of the Day: Kenny Rosenberg over 1.5 walks allowed (-115 DraftKings )

    The Los Angeles Angels are still searching for answers regarding their starting rotation, so Rosenberg will mark the 14th different pitcher to start a game for Ron Washington's squad in 2024.

    Rosenberg has appeared in only two games this season, coming out of the bullpen each time. The left-hander has surrendered 12 hits, seven earned runs and four walks in 10.0 innings of work. In three starts last season, he walked five total batters.

    Rosenberg has struggled with his command a bit this season, as he's throwing just 49.4 percent of his pitches in the strike zone. It's not a terrible number, but the issue is his inability to force hitters to chase when he's not hitting the zone. Rosenberg has just a 22.9 percent chase rate through two appearances, which is the 68th-lowest mark among 604 pitchers who have faced at least 25 batters this year.

    As for the matchup, the Oakland Athletics are seeing lefties extremely well right now. The A's have the second-highest walk rate against southpaws this month (13.6 percent). We expect Rosenberg to go at least five innings in this matchup, so Oakland will have plenty of chances to work the count and force walks.
