Seattle Mariners @ Philadelphia Phillies
Mariners -120 @ Phillies +102 – Total 8.5
It was sweaty, but David Peterson cashed the over on his K prop for us last week, as our write-ups continue to roll. We’re headed to Philly today for another K Prop. I’ll keep this brief, since this prop is on the move.
Through four starts, Logan Gilbert’s K% ranks in the 86th percentile. He has had six or more strikeouts in all of his outings this season, thanks to a strikeout percentage over 27% on all four of his pitches. To make the over even more enticing, he’s facing a Phillies lineup that has serious issues making contact – with the eighth-highest K rate against righties. More specifically, they sit in the top 10 for most strikeouts against three of the four pitches in his arsenal.
I’m projecting Gilbert to pitch about six innings Wednesday evening and rack up the six or seven punchouts we need to cash. As always, be sure to use the FTN Prop Shop to make sure you’re betting the best number available.
Bets: Logan Gilbert Over 5.5 Ks -136 (FanDuel Sportsbook)
