September 20 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Aaron Civale Over 5.5 Ks (-160) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Aaron Civale has struck out 35.6% of his last 104 batters.
He's only struck out 22.2% of batters this season. Civale was tarded to the Rays midseason from the Guardians. Since then, his strikeout rate has started to tick up.
He'll face an Angels lineup that doesn't have Mike Trout or Shohei Ohtani. They've got five batters striking out at least 23.9% of the time against righties in the last month. That should be enough targets for Civale, who has held teams to a .118 ISO and wOBA of .280 throughout the season.
Justin Steele Over 6.5 Ks (+120) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Justin Steele has struck out 28.5% of batters in the last month. That rate is above his 24.1% of strikeouts this season.
In the last 30 days, Steele has held teams to a .099 ISO and wOBA of .259. He's just struggled with lefties a bit over the previous month.
However, the Pirates will have a full lineup of righties. Righties have hit a .051 ISO and wOBA of .228.
Steele should go deep in this game. He should also rack up strikeouts against a Pirates lineup that has struck out over 30% of the time in the last month.
Zack Thompson Under 4.5 Ks (-112) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds for this pick
Zackk Thompson will get another start for the Cardinals. The left-hander has struck out only 20.5% of batters in the last 30 days.
That's below his seasonal average of 25.5%.
Thompson has also allowed a .162 ISO and wOBA of .350 to his last 112 batters. Those numbers are a bit high.
He'll take on a projected Brewers lineup that has only struck out 17% of the time against lefties in the last month. Milwaukee has six batters striking out 20.8% or less against lefties.
Take Thompson's Under.
