- Consider KC’s Michael Wacha as a candidate for the best strikeout props today.
- Red Sox targeting Yankees’ Ryan Yarborough once again.
Top 3 Pitcher Prop Picks
1. Michael Wacha Over 5.5 Strikeouts (+129) Athletics vs Royals 8:10 P.M. ET
Wacha isn’t the biggest strikeout pitcher there is, but we like this pick among all those involving major league baseball pitchers today. He’s gone over this number twice in his last four starts, including each of the last four at home. Oakland hitters have whiffed more than anyone in baseball in the month of June, so they’re a prime target for this veteran.

Bet on Michael Wacha Over 5.5 Strikeouts (+129)
2. Ryan Yarbrough 4+ Earned Runs (+146) Yankees vs Red Sox 7:10 P.M. ET
Yarbrough has given the Yankees a big boost since entering the rotation last month, but he was hammered by the Red Sox last time out in Yankee Stadium. That kept alive a career-long struggle for the lefty against this team, and the numbers are jarring. The former Ray and Blue Jay has a 7.11 ERA in his career at Fenway and a 7.65 mark in 21 career games (10 starts) versus Boston.
If making some MLB predictions, consider the Sox getting to Yarbrough early and often.

3. Luis Castillo Under 4.5 Hits Allowed (+123) Guardians vs Mariners 10:10 p.m. ET
Like a lot of hurlers out there, Castillo loves pitching his MLB games in Seattle. He owns a 2.25 ERA while holding opponents to a .209 average at T-Mobile Park, and that’s where he’ll face Cleveland tonight. The Guardians have scored a total of six runs in their last four road games and are 26th in the majors in hits in the month of June.
