August 28 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Christian Javier Under 4.5 Ks (+122) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
I'm not afraid of taking plus-money plays.
Christian Javier has only struck out 13.3% of batters in the last 30 days. That's down from 21.3% of strikeouts this season.
He's also allowed a .253 ISO and wOBA of .380 in the last 30 days and will face a Red Sox team that doesn't strike out much against righties.
The Red Sox have struck out 19.7% of the time against righties using their projected lineup. Only two batters have struck out more than 21.1% of the time against righties in the last 30 days.
Take Javier's Under.
Blake Snell Over 7.5 Ks (+112) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Blake Snell has struck out 31.9% of batters over the last 30 days. That sounds ridiculous. But you should also know that Snell has sustained this strikeout rate throughout the season.
He's struck out 30.9% of batters this year, including 32.1% of lefties and 30.6% of righties.
Tonight, he'll take on a Cardinals lineup that has struck out 26.5% of the time against lefties. They've got seven batters striking out at least 21.4% of the time against lefties. Snell has a lot of targets, even if the Cardinals don't have many batters striking out at a ridiculous rate.
Take Snell to earn at least eight strikeouts. He's averaged a strikeout every three batters throughout the whole season. We're about to be in September.
Johan Oviedo Under 4.5 Ks (+120) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
I guess I'm going after a lot of plus money today.
Johan Oviedo has struck out just 19.7% of batters in the last 30 days. That's down from 20.4% of strikeouts this season.
He's allowed a .188 ISO and wOBA of .326 to his last 117 batters. The right-hander has also allowed 30.8% of line drives while inducing only 32.1% of grounders.
Meanwhile, the Royals have struck out 18.6% of the time against righties. Only one batter has struck out more than 21.1% of the time against righties. That's MJ Melendez, who has also hit a .319 ISO and wOBA of .439.
He's more of a power threat than a strikeout threat against Oviedo. Let's take that Under for Oviedo here.
