August 11 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Dylan Cease Over 7.5 Ks (-111) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
The Padres will send out Dylan Cease against the Marlins. He's a right-handed pitcher who has struck out 38.8% of batters over the last month. In addition, Cease has held his last 98 batters to a .045 ISO and wOBA of .140 with 54% of ground balls induced.
He'll likely pitch deep in this game.
In addition, the Marlins have struck out 26.2% of the time against righties over the last month. The lineup has also hit just a .121 ISO and wOBA of .295. Miami's lineup has been super inconsistent against righties. With Cease on the mound, it'll only get worse.
Back Cease to earn at least eight strikeouts.

Over the last month, Spencer Schwellenbach has struck out 32% of batters. He's literally added 44.9% of strikeouts against righties over the last 30 days.
He'll take on a Rockies lineup that has more righties than lefties in the lineup. As an entire lineup, the Rockies have struck out 26.3% of the time against righties over the last 30 days. There are ultimately seven targets with high strikeout rates, including some lefties.
While Colorado does have some power against righties, it won't matter much if they can't make contact against Schwellenbach. Let's take the Braves' righty to earn at least six strikeouts today.

Hayden Birdsong and the Giants will face the Detroit Tigers today. The right-handed pitcher has added 30.8% of strikeouts over the last month. He's also held his last 29 righties to a .120 ISO and wOBA of .291.

Additionally. there are four batters with strikeout rates of at least 30% against righties over the last month. There are also seven batters with strikeout rates above 20% against righties in the last 30 days.
That's plenty of targets for the rising righty.
