I'm seeing his TDF odds shorter than people like carapaz or oconnor. I definitely think he could transition to that type of ride but I don't see any indication of it this season.

odds are also a function of how much the house thinks people are willing to bet on someone. Pidcock is a big name right now so it's an easy buck for them.

I guess? There have been similarly obviously wrong big name discounts for e.g. Froome in recent history. I'm still a bit surprised.
