It’s another full slate of MLB games on Wednesday with many key games in terms of the playoff races. With these sets of games, there is plenty of value in terms of prop bets.
Max Scherzer under 7.5 strikeouts (+105)
Max Scherzer has found a lot of success but each of the last two games he hasn’t been striking out as many. Two starts ago, Scherzer had seven strikeouts, and in the last game, he had six strikeouts. I expect Scherzer to find success in this game, but only finish with six or seven strikeouts and the +105 will cash.
Miles Mikolas under 3.5 strikeouts (+105)
Miles Mikolas has been pitching better as of late, but that hasn’t involved a ton of strikeouts. Mikolas hasn’t had more than three strikeouts in any of his last six starts., including the last start against the Milwaukee Brewers where he went six innings. This is the best prop bet on the board getting the plus money.
Toronto Blue Jays under 3.5 runs (+100)
The Toronto Blue Jays struggled to score on Tuesday, scoring only two runs, and they are going to struggle to score again in this game. Gerrit Cole hasn’t been as dominant as of late, but I trust him more than the Blue Jays offense. Take the Blue Jays under 3.5 runs.
Chicago Cubs, Pittsburgh Pirates over 0,5 runs in the first inning (-105)
The Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates will get their bats going early in this game. Kyle Hendricks is on the mound for the Cubs, and he has been inconsistent this season. On the mound for the Pirates is Roansy Contreras and there will no doubt be some nerves early in this game.It wouldn’t be shocking to see both of these teams score in the first inning.
