With a full 15-game slate, I've added three of my favorite strikeout props for tonight.
After a few lackluster days, let's get back on track to begin the weekend.
September 6 Best MLB Strikeout Props
Michael King Over 7.5 Ks (+120) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Michael King has struck out 28% of batters this season. He's also struck out 28% of batters in the last month. So, he's been on par throughout the season.
He'll take on a Giants projected lineup that has already struck out 27.7% of the time against righties. In addition, this projected lineup has six batters who have struck out at least 24.3% of the time.
But beyond that, every player in the projected lineup has struck out 19.7% of the time. At home, against the Giants, I'd expect King to have a massive performance. He's already held his last 118 batters to a .125 ISO and has allowed just 32.4% of hard contact with 50.7% of ground balls induced in that time.
Take his Over.
Tarik Skubal Over 7.5 Ks (-120) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The Detroit Tigers will give Tarik Skubal the start tonight. He's a lefty thrower, adding 30.3% of strikeouts this season and 32.2% over the last 30 days.
More importantly, he's added 35% of strikeouts against righties and will likely face an Athletics lineup with seven righties in it.
Those seven righties have combined to strike out only 19.8% of the time over the last 30 days. However, six batters still have strikeout rates of at least 19% in the Oakland lineup.
Skubal is one of the game's most dominant strikeout throwers. But he's also held his last 121 batters to a .080 ISO and wOBA of .236 with only 5.8% of walks. He'll likely pitch deep into this game. Let's back his Over, too.
Matthew Boyd Over 4.5 Ks (-102) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Since Matthew Boyd returned to the mound, I've been impressed. He's struck out 23.3% of batters and has held his first 86 batters to a .125 ISO and wOBA of .231.
The left-handed Boyd has already added a 26.7% whiff percentage and has recorded 13.1% of swinging strikes.
Meanwhile, he'll face a Dodgers lineup with four batters with strikeout rates of at least 23.1% against lefties in the last month. Plus, the Dodgers haven't even hit lefties well over the previous month. The projected lineup has added a .150 ISO and wOBA of .312 against lefties.
Boyd is a sneaky play against the Dodgers.
