August 15 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Tobias Myers Over 4.5 Ks (-122) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
Milwaukee's Tobias Myers has struck out 25.3% of batters over the last month. That's better than his season's average of 22.3%.
He's still allowing some power to lefties. But overall, he's allowed a .139 ISO and wOBA of .274 to his last 87 batters. In addition, he's struck out 27.3% of lefties and 23.3% of righties over the last month. He's been earning above-average numbers against both sides of the plate.
Meanwhile, he'll take on a Dodgers lineup with five batters with high strikeout rates of at least 22.9%. There are even four batters with strikeout rates of at least 25% in the Los Angeles lineup.
While the Dodgers have improved with Mookie Betts in the lineup, there are still areas for Tobias Myers to earn strikeouts. Back his Over.
Max Fried Over 6.5 Ks (+110) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
The Braves will send out Max Fried for today's game against the Giants. Fried has struck out 34.1% of his last 44 batters. This is new for Fried. Ultimately, he's only struck out 22.7% of batters this season.
But he's also limited 484 batters to a .085 ISO and wOBA of .283 throughout the year.
We'll want to take advantage of Fried's high strikeout rate. He's facing a Giants projected lineup with six batters with high strikeouts against lefties over the last month. In addition, he might even get two lefties in the lineup, which should only help with adding strikeouts.
Let's take Fried's Over here.
Logan Webb Over 5.5 Ks (-106) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
We'll stay in the same game.
Logan Webb will take the hill for the Giants. He's a righty who has added 24.2% of strikeouts against other righties over the last month.
In the projected lineup, the Braves will likely have six righties. That works out well for Webb.
Webb has held his last 66 righties to a .094 ISO and wOBA of .272. He's also limited fly balls to 14.6%. The more righties he faces, the longer he'll likely pitch in the game.
In addition, six batters in the projected Atlanta lineup have high strikeout rates against righties over the last month. Of those six batters, five are right-handed batters.
Take Webb to achieve at least six strikeouts in today's game.
