Thursday's Early MLB Looks: Who Should Be on Today's Strikeout Watch?
Take a guess as to how many players are in MLB. I'd say it's close to a million. Maybe more. Every day these teams send out lineups with guys' names on them that I've never heard of. Sometimes I'm not even sure if these are real people. By the time I figure out the person is real, the lines have already moved against me. There has to be a better way people. That's why I've devised a system for pitcher strikeout props for lazy people. I don't mean lazy in a mean way, I'm an actual member of Team Lazy myself. All we really need is a watch list. Kind of like the FBI has but not as serious. Nobody on this list did anything illegal (probably). This is just a list of known strikeout guys over the last week of action (30% or higher). If you see a team with five or six of these 30+% guys in the lineup today, you know the opposing pitcher is in play. Conversely, if none of these guys are around, then maybe stay away. I know, it's genius. Here's Thursday's K-Watch List:
