It was a fantastic start to the MLB postseason with our strikeout props!
We went 3-0 and hit a couple of plus-money wagers.
Let's keep that momentum rolling into today's postseason slate.
October 4 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Zach Eflin Over 5.5 Ks (+110) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Zach Eflin will get the start for the Rays tonight. He's struggled a bit against lefties, but the Rangers only have two lefties that have hit an above-average rate over the last month.
Eflin has struck out 32.1% of batters in the last month. He's also earned 41.2% of strikeouts against his last 41 righties.
The righties in the Texas lineup have struck out nearly 24% of the time. Meanwhile, five batters have struck out at least 25% of the time against righties.
If Eflin gets through this lineup twice, six strikeouts should be in the cards.
Sonny Gray Under 4.5 Ks (-108) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The Twins will roll with Sonny Gray today. The right-handed veteran has struck out 24.8% of batters in the last month but has only struck out 22.4% of righties.
Meanwhile, throughout the season, he's struggled to strikeout lefties, earning only 22.6% of strikeouts against lefties in the last month.
He's not your typical strikeout pitcher. He's getting a below-average amount of whiffs and swinging strikes and has thrown about 84 pitches per start over the last month.
That's not ideal when looking for strikeouts.
Gray will face off against a Blue Jays lineup that has hit a .237 ISO against righties over the last 30 days. The lineup also has just three batters striking out more than 21.7% of the time.
Take Gray's Under.
Zac Gallen Over 5.5 Ks (+126) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
We've got another plus-money play.
Zac Gallen's taking the hill for the Diamondbacks tonight. Gallen has struck out 26.6% of batters throughout the last month. He's also been consistent throughout the year, with 25.7% of strikeouts this season.
Gallen has earned 23.8% of whiffs over the last month and nearly 12% of swinging strikes throughout the season.
He'll face a Brewers lineup with five batters striking out at least 23.5% of the time. Milwaukee's lineup is ultimately boom or bust. They've either got guys hitting for power or striking out.
We can expect Gallen to empty the tank tonight to earn the Wild Card Series. Take his Over.
