It was another 2-1 day yesterday. Cole Ragans was ultimately one strikeout away from helping us earn a sweep. But we'll still take the profit from yesterday.
Here are three more strikeout props you can consider for today's MLB games.
June 20 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Mitch Spence Under 3.5 Ks (-132) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Over the last 30 days, Mitch Spence has struck out only 15.3% of batters. His strikeout rate is down from his 18.6% strikeout rate on the season.
While he's done well overall, don't expect for Spence to rack up strikeouts. The Royals' projected lineup has struck out only 19.3% of the time. It also has just one batter with a strikeout rate of above 22.4%.
Ultimately, MJ Melendez is the only major strikeout target in the lineup, but he's also hit a .245 ISO against righties in the last 30 days. Let's take our chances and back the Under.
Cole Irvin Under 4.5 Ks (-140) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Cole Irvin has only struck out 13.8% of righties in the last month. He'll likely face at least six righties in the New York lineup tonight. Those six righties have struck out below 21% of the time in the last 30 days.
Meanwhile, Irvin is really good at adding strikeouts against lefties. He'll only face three of them, but those three lefties in the Yankees lineup have combined to strike out 10.1% of the time.
Irvin has also allowed a .221 ISO and wOBA of .404 to his last 94 righties. New York has the potential to hit him well and knock him out of the game. Especially if Aaron Judge is back in the lineup, as expected.
Take Irvin's Under.
Keaton Winn Over 4.5 Ks (-128) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Keaton Winn has seen an uptick in his strikeout rate. Although he's added just 20.4% of strikeouts this season, over the last 30 days, Winn has contributed a 27.7% strikeout rate.
He'll pitch against a Cardinals projected lineup that has four batters with a strikeout rate of at least 23%. Meanwhile, three of those four batters have struck out at least 33.3% of the time against righties in the last month.
With four targets and a few major strikeout batters, let's give Winn a chance to earn at least five strikeouts. He'll need just one an inning if he goes five innings.
