This play might be a head-scratcher to some, but Scherzer has historically dominated this Yankees lineup from top to bottom. So we'll be riding with him as part of our best strikeout props today.

"Dominated" might be putting it lightly, too, as the future Hall of Famer is striking this lineup out at a 40% clip across 147 at-bats. We love large sample sizes, especially when it comes against some of the more prominent figures in the New York order. 

Paul Goldschmidt (9-for-44, 20 strikeouts) leads the way in shameful walks back to the dugout when facing Scherzer. If you're counting at home, that's 42% of the time.

You might also be asking yourself, "Well, what about Aaron Judge?" The results may surprise you, as the captain is just 4-for-16 with nine strikeouts against the righty, good for 56%. The fact that New York is also top 10 in baseball when it comes to getting punched out is just icing on the cake.

Ride Scherzer to get us six strikeouts. And if you're feeling risky, I'd still play the Over 6.5 for +165 betting odds (DraftKings). He's just one of many in our best Yankees vs. Blue Jays predictions today.

The Milwaukee Brewers are playing some incredible baseball lately while riding an MLB-best 11-game winning streak into tonight's contest against the Mariners. A big part of why Milwaukee has been so damn good? The Brewers simply refuse to strike out.

The Brew Crew strikes out the seventh-least in all of baseball, and they're up against a pitcher who punches them out at just a 20% pace. While Gilbert does possess swing-and-miss stuff, I'm riding the hot bats to cash this value play for us as part of our best strikeout props today. 

I'd price this closer to EVEN, so we can't pass up this type of value. Let's sweep the slate tonight and do it all again tomorrow.

❓MLB betting FAQs

How do betting odds work?

Betting odds represent the probability of a specific outcome and determine how much money you can win on a bet. There are three main formats: American odds, Decimal odds, and Fractional odds. In the U.S., American odds are most common. 

What is the run line in baseball?

The run line in baseball is a form of point spread betting unique to MLB. It typically sets a standard spread of 1.5 runs, meaning the favored team must win by at least two runs to cover the run line, while the underdog can lose by one run or win outright to cover.

What does moneyline mean in betting?

The moneyline in betting refers to a wager on which team or player will win the game outright, with no point spread involved. It’s the most straightforward type of sports bet - just pick the winner.
