Logan Webb gets the ball for the Giants on Thursday, coming off of a shaky outing in his last appearance. Webb averages 7.9 Ks per nine on the year, and he's had several high strikeout performances already in 2022.
Webb's managed to amass six or more Ks in three of his last four starts, and the Padres go down on strikes at about MLB league average. Looking at his last two starts facing the Padres, Webb managed to punch out eight hitters earlier this year and seven back in October 2021.

MLB Player Prop #2: Matthew Liberatore Over 3.5 Strikeouts (-115)
Atlanta Braves vs. St. Louis Cardinals Match Details
Fixture: St. Louis Cardinals @ Atlanta Braves
Date & Time: Thursday, July 7, 7:20 p.m. EDT
Venue: Truist Park, Atlanta, GA
Matthew Liberatore will be making his sixth start of the season against the Braves. The Braves are known to strike out a lot. They currently have the second-highest strikeout percentage in the National League. Liberatore has a K/9 rate of 7.8, and he was successful mowing down hitters in the minors this year.
One thing that has held the young lefty back is that he hasn't been able to go too deep into ballgames. If he tosses at least five frames, he should be able to easily punch out four batters.

Chicago White Sox vs. Detroit Tigers Match Details
Fixture: Detroit Tigers @ Chicago White Sox
Date & Time: Thursday, July 7, 8:10 p.m. EDT
Venue: Guaranteed Rate Field, Chicago, IL
Dylan Cease has had an excellent year, posting a 7-3 record, 2.51 ERA, and 1.24 WHIP heading into Thursday's contest. He averages an impressive 13.1 Ks per nine, but in his last outing, he only managed to punch out four San Francisco Giants hitters. He's faced Detroit twice this year, and both times he managed to fan eight hitters.
Considering the Tigers only strike out at league average, expect Cease to K eight or fewer on Thursday as well.
