August 6 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Brandon Woodruff Over 6.5 Ks (-148) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Brandon Woodruff is back on the mound for the Brewers. This should help with their playoff run!
Woodruff has struck out over 30% of batters last season and this season. He also held teams to a .103 ISO and wOBA of .235 this year before his injury.
He'll take on a Pirates lineup that has struck out 29.4% of the time against righties. The Pirates only have one batter striking out less than 22.9% of the time against righties in the last month in that projected lineup.
Let's back Woodruff to earn at least seven strikeouts tonight.
Zac Gallen Over 6.5 Ks (-158) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Zac Gallen needs a solid second half to win the NL Cy Young race. He'll have to earn higher strikeouts if he wants to pull away. He's only struck out 23.2% of batters in the last month. That's down from 25.7% throughout the season. But Gallen will face a Brewers lineup that has struck out 29.6% of the time in the last month against righties. This Milwaukee lineup only has two batters striking out lower than 25.9% of the time. Gallen has a lot of targets and has struck out 26.4% of lefties throughout the season. With the Twins potentially batting six lefties, Gallen has some outstanding matchups. Back him to earn seven strikeouts.
