Chris Flexen, the Mariners starter, has a 1.42 WHIP and consistently allows a lot of base runners. Look for Trout to come around and score even if pitched around on Friday.
MLB Player Prop #2: Alex Cobb Over 4.5 Strikeouts (+115)
San Francisco Giants vs. Cincinnati Reds Match Details
Fixture: Cincinnati Reds @ San Francisco Giants
Date & Time: Friday, June 24, 10:15 p.m. EDT
Venue: Oracle Park, San Francisco, CA
Alex Cobb gets the nod Friday against the Cincinnati Reds at home. Cobb totaled just two punch-outs in his last start, where he returned from the IL after three weeks. He's expected to go deeper in this one against a Reds club that strikes out around the league average rate. Cobb had recorded six strikeouts in four of his previous five starts before hitting the IL, so expect him to get back to that on Friday. Also, he sat down eight in his May 29 start against the Reds, so he can at least get up to five tonight.
MLB Player Prop #2: Sandy Alcantara Over 20.5 Outs Recorded (-141)
Miami Marlins vs. New York Mets Match Details
Fixture: New York Mets @ Miami Marlins
Date & Time: Friday, June 24, 6:40 p.m. EDT
Venue: loanDepot Park, Miami, FL

Sandy Alcantara is unquestionably one of the best starters in the MLB, and he has the stats to back it up. He has a 1.72 ERA and 0.96 WHIP this year, and he eats up a ton of innings. His average start this year is just over seven innings, and lately that figure keeps rising. He's averaging over 7 2/3 frames over his last eight outings, including an eight-inning performance in a win over the Mets.
Expect Alcantara, who has hit the seven inning mark in each of his last eight starts, to make it nine in a row in the opener.
