Thursday's MLB Best Bets: Brady Singer, Zack Wheeler, and the Strikeout Watch List

After Tuesday, the Strikeout Watch List is 10-1 on standard lines in its last three editions. That's insane but I don't even count that record. Why? Because the Strikeout Watch List is about ladders. Not standard lines. When I hear that every guy hit their standard line, I think "of course they did." We're betting these guys to ladder to the moon. Of course, they're getting their standard lines. That's the first stop on the way up. Everyone knows that. I'm just saying to never forget that this is a ladder article and always will be. We can't count standard line bets. We're better than that. Even if they are 10-1 in the last three editions (nbd).

Remember, we need to see AT LEAST five of these batters in these lineups when they are released. If that happens, get ready to fire away. If we don't see at least five of these names in each lineup, walk away. We'll find something better. Don't forget to be somebody today.
