May 21 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Andrew Abbott Under 4.5 Ks (-144) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
Andrew Abbott will take the hill for the Reds tonight. The left-hander has only struck out 20.1% of batters this season, including just 19.3% of righties.
Tonight, he'll likely face a Padres lineup with seven right-handed batters. The only lefties would be Luis Arraez and Jake Cronenworth, who have both struck out 17% of the time or less against lefties.
As a projected lineup, the Padres have only struck out 16.3% of the time against lefties. Meanwhile, Abbott has allowed a .255 ISO and wOBA of .333 with more fly balls than ground balls to righties. It'll be a difficult night for Abbott to navigate. Let's ride his Under here.
Bryan Woo Over 4.5 Ks (-145) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
Seattle will roll with Bryan Woo tonight. Woo has only faced 35 batters this season. But he's struck out 33.3% of righties and has held righties to a .000 ISO and wOBA of .059.
This is nothing new. Last season, Woo faced 191 righties as a right-handed pitcher and allowed a .089 ISO and wOBA of .223 with 30.4% of strikeouts and 4.2% of walks.
Tonight, Woo is facing a Yankees lineup that should have four righties in it. That's not the majority. However, the righties in the projected lineup have combined to strike out 24.4% of the time.
There's a high probability that Woo can stack up strikeouts against those righties. Therefore, I'll back his Over.
Yusei Kikuchi Over 6.5 Ks (+122) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
The Blue Jays will pitch left-hander Yusei Kikuchi tonight. He's added 26.2% of strikeouts this season and has been consistent against both sides of the plate.
That said, he'll face a White Sox lineup that has five batters striking out at least 26.7% of the time. Kikuchi ultimately has five batters that he can strike out at a high rate. In addition, there are also four batters in Chicago's lineup that have an ISO of no better than .143 and five batters with a wOBA of no better than .272.
I'd expect Kikuchi to last long in tonight's game. A quality start is certainly in store. If he can go six innings, I wouldn't be surprised if he finished with 7+ strikeouts.
