MLB Player Props – Best Bets for 6/14

Another day, another loaded MLB slate. What are the best MLB player props to bet on today? Let’s take a look.

MLB Player Props – Best Bets

Michael Wacha Under 4.5 Strikeouts -136 (FanDuel)

Wacha has been having a solid strikeout campaign, but the Guardians are a tough team to strike out five or more times. Wacha is in the 53rd percentile for K rate, the 46th for whiff%, and the 67th for chase rate, so he has solid numbers. Cleveland chases a lot, so that could be their downfall, but they do not end up striking out a lot. The Guardians have the lowest K rate against righties this season, and they have the 2nd lowest K rate in the MLB in June. Wacha should not ring up more than four Guardians tonight.

Gerrit Cole Over 6.5 Strikeouts -109 (BetRivers)

Cole’s strikeout numbers have not been as electric as they normally are this season, but he should be able to ring up seven Mets tonight. Cole averages over a strikeout an inning, and he is in the 67th percentile for K rate, the 46th for whiff%, and the 69th for chase rate. The Mets, at one point, did not strike out a ton, but Cole is catching them at a good time. The Mets have the 7th highest K rate in June, and they have the 10th-highest K rate at home this season. Considering Cole has a 34.5% K rate against this current Mets roster, he should be able to get seven tonight.

Kyle Bradish Under 4.5 Strikeouts -134 (FanDuel)

Bradish averages under a strikeout per inning, and he should have a tough time against a Blue Jays lineup that hits .384 against him. Bradish is in the 48th percentile for K rate, the 49th for whiff%, and the 43rd for chase rate. The Blue Jays have the 2nd lowest K rate at home, the 5th lowest K rate vs right-handed pitching, and the 9th lowest K rate in June. I expect Bradish to go under this number against a tough lineup.
