Best MLB Strikeout Bets: Lock In This Expert's Best MLB Player Prop Bets for Tuesday
For whatever reason, yesterday was a big day for pitchers who usually don't get a high rate of strikeouts.
We'll forget about yesterday and add three more strikeout props for tonight's 15-game slate. Let's get back to our winning ways.
August 20 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Tyler Anderson Under 3.5 Ks (+132) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
Over the last month, Tyler Anderson has recorded 28.8% of strikeouts. But it's hard to imagine that lasts.
He's only struck out 19.3% of batters this season and has added just 20% of strikeouts against righties this year.
Meanwhile, he'll face a Royals lineup that has struck out just 16.6% of the time against lefties over the last month. No batter has even struck out more than 25% of the time against lefties. In addition, most of the Royals' lineup is aggressive at the plate.
There are six batters with walk rates of no higher than 7.1%. The Royals are up there to hit. Let's grab Anderson's Under at +132.
Ronel Blanco Over 5.5 Ks (-154) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
Over the last month, Ronel Blanco has secured 28.3% of strikeouts. That's above his season's average of 24.3%.
Blanco has struck out 23.7% of lefties and 34% of righties and has also held his last 106 batters to a .304 wOBA.
Furthermore, Blanco has earned 15.4% of swinging strikes and will face a Red Sox squad that has struck out 23% of the time against righties over the last month.
Boston has six batters with high strikeout rates against righties, but Blanco only needs six strikeouts to hit his prop. Let's ride with Blanco to add at least six strikeouts tonight.
Robbie Ray Over 6.5 Ks (-134) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
While Robbie Ray hasn't been elite since returning to the mound, he's still struck out 32.6% of batters over the last month.
Ray has recorded 25% of strikeouts against lefties and 34.2% against righties. Now, he'll take on a White Sox projected lineup that has struck out 28.6% of the time against lefties over the last 30 days.
Chicago's projected lineup has also hit a .036 ISO and wOBA of .185 over the last month. It's the worst lineup in baseball. I'd expect Ray to cruise past Chicago and record a high rate of strikeouts. Grab his Over to conclude the night.
