MLB Prop Bet of the Day

Luis García OVER 6.5 strikeouts at Detroit (+115, BetMGM)

We’re shotgunning celebratory beers, Bakhtiari style. NBA abandonment has done wonders for this scribe’s luck. We’ve cashed four straight in this space. One more, and Mickey Mouse will have to use his other hand to continue the count. For the reversal of fortune to add another hundo to the bankroll, García needs to do what he excels at best, missing bats. Showcasing a 10.24 K/9 and 31.0 called plus swinging strike percentage, the savvy ‘Stro has topped the proposed threshold in seven of 12 starts, including a seven K April takedown of Detroit operating over 4.1 innings of relief. The clawless Tigers, strikeout out at the highest rate of any team in baseball (27.3%), present the mother of all matchups. At plus odds, this is a no-brainer wager worth chasing.
