With the top of the Dodgers order back to full health and Ortiz projecting for Under 13 outs, should bettors be double-dipping on the Pittsburgh starter’s Unders today in the nightcap, including his modest strikeout total of 3.5?

Pirates vs Dodgers odds Pirates vs Dodgers predictions
Despite some modest prop totals, Pittsburgh right-hander Luis Ortiz neither projects to get deep tonight nor to strike out many LA batters. 
He currently has an out total of 14.5 paying plus money for the Under while his strikeouts have moved from 4.5 to 3.5, though are still showing value to the Under at plus money.
Ortiz has a 31:25 K/BB rate over 50 1/3 innings of work with Pittsburgh this year and is coming off a start where he had just three swinging strikes on 69 pitches and recorded zero punchouts vs. the Padres. He was barely an 8.00 K/9 pitcher at Triple-A and faces a team that strikes out at a neutral rate on the season. 
The pitching conditions will not favor Ortiz either, as Dodgers Stadium will be in the mid-70s with a 9-mph wind blowing straight out. 
It’s a full fade on Ortiz and I’m doing a half unit on his Under 14.5 outs at +115 (DraftKings) and another half unit on his Under 3.5 Ks at +105 (Betway/DK). THE BAT is projecting just 12.8 outs and 2.92 strikeouts. A hat-tip to those who got to his Under 4.5 strikeouts early this morning as those bettors are sitting with solid CLV. My best bet: Luis Ortiz Under 14.5 outs (+115 at DraftKings) and Under 3.5 strikeouts (+105 at DraftKings) *0.5 units per bet Pirates vs Dodgers same-game parlay Luis Ortiz Under 3.5 strikeouts (-115) Ortiz Under 14.5 outs recorded (+115) Will Smith Over 0.5 home runs (+625) It's a straight fade on Ortiz, who is projected to have a rough outing and not even get 3.0 strikeouts or 13 outs, per THE BAT. It's a tough matchup in a hitter's environment and Ortiz had just three swings-and-misses last game over 69 pitches and recorded zero punchouts.  Will Smith is showing the best +EV for home run props in the game at his +625 odds. THE BAT is projecting 0.25 for the No. 3 hitter, who has a .885 OPS and 12 home runs over 218 at-bats with some of the best insulation in the lineup. Ortiz has a hefty 15.4% HR/FB rate while the Pittsburgh bullpen ranks in the middle of the league in HR/FB%.  Learn how to bet a same-game parlay with these helpful tips and strategies.

Pirates vs Dodgers moneyline and Over/Under analysis
The Dodgers closed as a -170 home favorite in a pitching matchup (Keller vs. Grove) that favored the visitors significantly. Now with a starting pitching matchup that is more in LA's favor, the Dodgers have gone from -225 to -250 since opening. 
It’s a short price for LA, who has frustrated bettors this year with a -8.3-unit loss on straight ML bets. But bettors know if you want the Dodgers, you’re going to have to pay the tax, which is something I’m usually not inter...
