Best MLB Strikeout Bets: Lock In This Expert's Best MLB Player Prop Bets for Thursday

Despite yesterday's 1-2 day, we're still profitable this week with our strikeout props. Let's turn the page and get back to our winning ways with three more strikeout props for today.

August 29 Best MLB Strikeout Props

Ryne Nelson Over 5.5 Ks (+108) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS

The Arizona Diamondbacks will send out Ryne Nelson for another turn in the rotation. Nelson has only struck out 19.8% of batters this season. Yet, over the last 30 days, he's accumulated 31.7% of strikeouts.

Nelson has also walked just 5% of batters and has held his last 120 to a .150 ISO and wOBA of .252.

Nelson is randomly putting up All-Star level numbers over the last month.

Meanwhile, he'll pitch against a Mets projected lineup that has struck out 29.5% of the time against righties over the last month. New York has six batters with a high strikeout rate over the last 30 days against righties.

I'll take my chances with Nelson, who needs six strikeouts for his prop to cash.

Bowden Francis Over 5.5 Ks (-108) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS

Bowden Francis is finally becoming the pitcher Toronto hoped he would be. Francis has struck out 35.4% of batters over the last month and has limited his last 96 hitters to a .122 ISO and wOBA of .165 with just 4.2% of walks.

Francis looks elite.

He'll battle against a Red Sox lineup filled with heavy strikeout hitters. The projected lineup has struck out 28.4% of the time and has six batters who have struck out at least 25% of the time against righties over the last 30 days.

The lineup even includes multiple hitters, including Tyler O'Neill and Mickey Gasper, who have struck out 40% of the time against righties over the last 30 days.

Francis could have another massive performance tonight. Take his Over.

Brady Singer Under 4.5 Ks (+108) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS

Brady Singer has struck out 23.6% of batters over the last month. That's currently above his season's average of 22.6%.

However, he's still struggled to add a high rate of strikeouts against righties recently. Instead, he's earned only 16.4% of strikeouts against righties and has allowed more than 30% of fly balls with almost 24% of line drives.

Unfortunately for Singer, he'll face an Astros lineup that should have six righties in it. Those six righties have only struck out 18.3% of the time against righties. That doesn't give Singer much room to work with when it comes to earning a high rate of strikeouts.

Six of the nine batters in the Houston lineup have struck out below 20% of the time over the last month against righties. Back Singer's Under.
