NHL Best Bets for Tuesday (11/19)

Logan Gilbert Over 4.5 Strikeouts (NO LINE YET)
The Rays whiff. Like a lot. Their team strikeout rate sits at 27.1%, and while we often hammer this bet against lefties, the same line should be tantalizing here. Gilbert has figured a few things out recently, striking out 18 over his last 17.2 innings pitched. Stalk this line and be ready to smash it.
Chris Taylor To Hit a Home Run (+660, DraftKings)
This one could seem strange, but let's peep the why. Matt Peacock, though he has an incredible name, has not been good this season. Peacock is allowing 1.60 HR/9, and he's just allowing too much contact — as evidenced by his last start in which he allowed 10 base hits. Take the value and run with it.
Anthony Rendon To Hit a Home Run (+450, DraftKings)
I guess he's likely being used as an opener, but Wily Peralta is taking the pill for the Tigers, and that is intriguing to me. Let's peep Peralta — he's thrown 1.1 innings this year, and he didn't pitch last year. In 2019, he was blasted for 1.56 HR/9. Rendon, by the way, is starting to turn a corner. Slam this puppy.
