💪 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.
Emerson Hancock Over 4.5 strikeouts (-144)
Hancock is in the middle of the best season of his career, allowing just five earned runs over his last 23 innings. He's coming off a seven-strikeout performance against the Mets and has gone at least six innings in six of his last seven starts. If he goes that deep against a team that strikes out the fifth-most in baseball, against a team he owns a 35% strikeout rate against, Hancock should have no problem racking up the Ks tonight.
Gavin Williams Over 6.5 strikeouts (-138)
Williams is striking batters out at an alarming rate this year, owning the sixth-best K percentage and whiff rate in all of baseball so far this season. He'll be up against the Yankees today, a team that has struck out 556 times this year - good for ninth-worst in MLB. Let's back this horse as part of our best strikeout props today.

❓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.
