After looking through tonight's MLB slate, I see some excellent pitchers are on the mound tonight.
Let's rely on some of them with our three strikeout props below.
August 26 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Max Fried Over 5.5 Ks (+128) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
The Braves will give the ball to lefty Max Fried tonight. He's already struck out 26.1% of batters over the last 30 days and has limited those opponents to a .064 ISO and a wOBA of .305.
Fried has also induced 53.6% of ground balls and has kept fly balls to 16.1%.
He's got the stuff to go deep in tonight's game against Minnesota. The Twins' projected lineup has struck out 24.3% of the time. There are six batters in the lineup with strikeout rates at 24.2% or higher against lefties.
The Twins' lineup has also hit a .150 ISO and a wOBA of .265 against lefties in the last month.
Expect Fried to have a solid day on the mound. A quality start of six innings with 6+ strikeouts should be in the cards.
Bailey Ober Over 6.5 Ks (+124) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
We'll stay in the same game. Bailey Ober has struck out 27.8% of batters over the last month.
In addition, he's held his last 126 batters to a .087 ISO and a wOBA of .199, with only 7.1% of walks issued in that time.
Ober will have to go toe-to-toe with Fried in tonight's game. I'd count on it.
Ober has added 14.7% of swinging strikes and will take on an Atlanta projected lineup that has struck out 22.1% of the time. There are five batters in the lineup with strikeout rates of at least 23.6% over the last 30 days against righties.
Look for Ober to produce in this potentially low-scoring pitching duel.
Kyle Gibson Under 3.5 Ks (+130) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
Kyle Gibson has only struck out 19.7% of batters this month, a decrease from his seasonal average of 21.9%.
Gibson has allowed a .209 ISO and wOBA of .372 to his last 122 batters. He's also given up 45.5% of hard contact with 31.8% of line drives. There's ultimately a chance that Gibson doesn't go very deep in this game with those stats.
That said, the Padres' projected lineup has struck out just 18.1% of the time against righties in the last 30 days. Only Kyle Higashioka and Mason McCoy have struck out more than 17.9% against righties.
Still, Higashioka and McCoy have high wOBA against righties over the last month.
Grab Gibson's Under.
