Today's Top Five MLB Pitchers Strikeouts Prop Bets
#5. Ben Brown (Cubs) - Over 5.5 K’s (-135)
Ben Brown might wear a bloated 5.57 ERA, but his electric 10.7 K/9 is undeniable. With 88 punchouts in 74.1 innings, he’s been a pure strikeout machine when in rhythm.
Facing a Cardinals lineup that’s shown swing-and-miss tendencies against righties, Brown’s fastball-slider combo puts him in a prime spot to clear this 5.5 mark tonight.
#4. Matthew Liberatore (Cardinals) - Over 3.5 K’s (-140)
Matthew Liberatore has quietly settled into a steady strikeout groove, fanning at least 4 hitters in 7 of his last 8 outings.
His 7.5 K/9 and impressive 1.2 BB/9 show he’s attacking the zone with confidence, and against a Cubs lineup that’s been vulnerable to lefties lately, he’s well-positioned to clear this modest 3.5 line once again.
#3. Nick Lodolo (Reds) - Under 5.5 K’s (-140)
Nick Lodolo’s strikeout numbers have cooled off lately, posting 4, 6, 4, and 5 Ks in his last four starts.
With a 7.8 K/9 on the season and a tough matchup against a Yankees lineup that’s been disciplined at the plate, this sets up as a tricky spot for Lodolo to chase down a 5.5 line. The recent trends lean toward the under here.
#2. Eduardo Rodriguez (Diamondbacks) - Under 5.5 K’s (-155) Safest Pick of the Day
Eduardo Rodriguez has struggled to find strikeout consistency, recording just 4, 5, 3, 4, and 3 Ks in his last five outings.
Despite a solid 9.5 K/9 on the season, his elevated ERA and WHIP, combined with a hittable White Sox lineup, make it risky to trust the over on his 5.5 line. The recent pattern firmly backs the under in this spot.
#1. Chad Patrick (Brewers) - Over 5.5 K’s (+105) Bold Prediction of the Day
Chad Patrick has been flying under the radar, but his recent strikeout consistency demands attention. With punchout totals of 5, 8, 6, 6, 6, and 7 in his last six outings, and a respectable 8.6 K/9 on the year.
He now gets a Pirates offense that ranks among the strikeout-prone in the league against righties. At plus odds, this is the kind of prop that sneaks onto sharp cards and quietly cashes.
