There are plenty of enticing matchups on the board in the MLB tonight.
There are some matchups that I love. And other matchups that are probably worth fading. Here are three strikeout props that I'll be adding to my betting portfolio today.
June 29 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Jesus Luzardo Under 5.5 Ks -110 is currently the best odds. Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Luzardo has struck out 29.7% of batters in the last month. That's up from 27.8% of strikeouts on the year.
However, his strikeout rate will probably suffer tonight.
The Red Sox projected lineup has struck out only 16.3% of the time against lefties in the last 30 days. Justin Turner and Rob Refsnyder haven't even struck out against a lefty in over a month.
Luzardo has also averaged 36.4% of strikeouts against lefties and 28.1% against righties. He'll be facing six righties in tonight's lineup and won't see as many lefties. That'll hurt him a little bit too. Take his Under.
Brayan Bello Under 4.5 Ks +112 is currently the best odds. Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Meanwhile, Brayan Bello has struck out only 19.7% of batters in the last 30 days. That's down from 21.8% on the season.
Bello has struck out righties more frequently than lefties. He'll face a balanced order of five righties and four lefties against the Marlins today.
The Marlins have struck out only 15.5% of the time against righties in the last 30 days. They've also hit a .394 wOBA against righties in that time. Only one batter has struck out more than 22% of the time against righties in this Marlins lineup.
Bello's been great, and he still might throw a quality start. But balls will be in play against Bello today.
Max Scherzer Over 7.5 Ks -112 is currently the best odds. Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Max Scherzer has struck out 29.4% of batters in the last 30 days. He's also struck out 30.8% of lefties in that time.
Milwaukee will have more lefties than righties in their lineup tonight. But that projected lineup has struck out 30% of the time against righties in the last month.
Not a single batter in this Milwaukee lineup has struck out under 20% of the time against righties in the last month.
Scherzer's start is a big one for the Mets, too. The Mets are in jeopardy of falling even lower in the standings, and we're about to head to July. He's got to give the Mets a big start and add some momentum to this team heading into the weekend.
