💪 Best MLB strikeout predictions today

Here's a breakdown of my best MLB strikeout prop predictions and expert picks today. Check out the rest of our MLB picks along with our guide on how to bet on MLB.  

Andre Pallante Under 4.5 strikeouts vs. Reds (-115)

This is a play I love due to the large sample size we're seeing. Over 150 plate appearances, Pallante is striking out this Reds team at a small 19% clip while owning a minuscule 23% whiff rate. Across his last nine starts, Pallante has only crossed this number once. The trends are on our side here; let's take advantage.

Brandon Young Under 3.5 strikeouts vs. Rays (+104)

Young is going to have a difficult time tonight - he's up against the team that strikes out the least in baseball. The Rays also have 1,078 hits this season, which is good enough for the fourth-most in the bigs. Their bat-to-ball skills, ability to string together quality at-bats, and ability to remain patient in the box are a nightmare for opposing pitchers. Expect to see more of that tonight.
