Best MLB Strikeout Bets: Lock In This Expert's Best MLB Player Prop Bets for Tuesday
We went 2-1 with our strikeout props yesterday, including a +120 bet on Patrick Sandoval.
The Angels lost 12-0 last night, but we still won an Over play on Sandoval. It's funny how baseball works.
Anyway, here are three more strikeout props for tonight's MLB slate.
August 15 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Josiah Gray Under 4.5 Ks (-128) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Josiah Gray has struck out just 15.4% of batters over the last month. That's down from 19.9% of strikeouts on the season.
Still, even 19.9% of strikeouts aren't above average.
He'll face a Red Sox team with only two batters in the projected lineup that have struck out more than 21.1% of the time against righties.
Gray's pitch count has dipped over the last 30 days, and he's also walked over 10% of batters in the previous 30 days. Take Gray to go Under 4.5 strikeouts.
Zack Wheeler Over 6.5 Ks (-134) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Wheeler has struck out 42.3% of righties over the last 30 days.
He'll face a Blue Jays lineup that should have six righties tonight. Those righties have combined to strike out 23.2% of the time. Plus, the three lefties have struck out 27.6% of the time.
As a lineup, the Blue Jays have struck out nearly 25% of the time against righties. Toronto has seven batters striking out at least 23.4% of the time in the last 30 days against righties.
I'll take my chances with Wheeler.
Bailey Falter Under 3.5 Ks (-110) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Bailey Falter has only thrown 74.5 pitches per start over the last 30 days. He's a left-handed pitcher, earning under 13% of strikeouts over the last month.
Falter has, instead, allowed a .222 ISO and wOBA of .454 to his last 39 batters. It's questionable that Falter even finishes five innings tonight.
The Mets have six batters striking out 20% of the time or less against lefties over the last 30 days. There aren't many targets for Falter tonight.
Take his Under.
