MLB All-Star Game 2024: Top Strikeouts Prop Bets featuring Paul Skenes

There are more than a few extremely talented pitchers in the All-Star Game, making it a good opportunity to prop bet on strikeouts. However, it's a matchup featuring the best hitters from either league, and there are limited opportunities since pitchers usually don't pitch more than two innings at most in All-Star Games.

Nevertheless, here are today's best bets.


Best strikeout prop bets for MLB All-Star Game

3) Paul Skenes Over 1.5 +135

Paul Skenes is one of the best pitchers in baseball, as evidenced by starting the All-Star Game in his rookie season, which also began late. The Pittsburgh Pirates ace is among the best at striking batters out, and while he may only pitch two innings in the All-Star game, he is expected to get at least two strikeouts. His talent speaks for itself, and the AL lineup includes players who could strike out against him.


2) Corbin Burnes Over 1.5 +250

Corbin Burnes doesn't have elite strikeout numbers this season, but the Baltimore Orioles ace still averages over one per inning. Since he's the starter expected pitch two innings, he has a strong chance of striking out multiple batters. There are a couple of boom-or-bust hitters in the National League, so Burnes need only take advantage of that to hit the over. The odds aren't great, but they are better than most other pitchers.


1) Hunter Greene Over 1.5 +190

While it is extremely likely, there's no guarantee that Cincinnati Reds ace Hunter Greene will pitch. However, if and when he does, he will record strikeouts. It's one thing he does quite often on the mound. He will be used in relief, so there's a chance he pitches just one inning since Paul Skenes is the starter. However, that still leaves him with a good chance of recording two strikeouts and passing his over/under for today.
