MLB Player Prop #1: Martin Perez Over 4.5 Strikeouts (+105)
Detroit Tigers vs. Texas Rangers Match Details
Fixture: Texas Rangers @ Detroit Tigers
Date & Time: Thursday, June 16, 7:10 p.m. EDT
Venue: Comerica Park, Detroit, MI
Martin Perez is having the best year of his career, and on Thursday, he'll be taking the hill for the Texas Rangers to oppose the Detroit Tigers. Perez has a 2.18 ERA despite having the worst start of his season last time out. He managed to strike out just four hitters while lasting five innings. Prior to that start, he had fanned five or more in six consecutive starts, and on the year, he has a 7.3 Ks per nine rate.

Perez be facing a weak Tigers lineup that has one of the highest strikeout rates in the MLB. He should be able to last deep into the ballgame on Thursday and shake off the outing he had last week.
MLB Player Prop #2: Aaron Ashby Over 5.5 Strikeouts (+130)
New York Mets vs. Milwaukee Brewers Match Details
Fixture: Milwaukee Brewers @ New York Mets
Date & Time: Thursday, June 16, 7:10 p.m. EDT
Venue: Citi Field, Flushing, NY
Aaron Ashby gets the ball on Thursday in the series finale. Ashby has been excellent at retiring hitters on strikes recently, as he's sat down 23 hitters in his last 16 2/3 innings. He has also given up 11 earned runs over that span. He'll have to be more effective today to stay in the game longer than he did in his last outing. Still, he averages more than 11 strikeouts per nine frames on the season, and he'll be going up against a Mets team that has a significantly higher strikeout percentage against lefties than against righties.

Look for Ashby to reach six punchouts for what would be the fifth time in his last seven starts.
