MLB Pitcher Prop Bets - Today's Betting Picks
Brandon Woodruff OVER 7.5 Strikeouts (+100, FD) vs. CWS
I'll lead things off with Brandon Woodruff. Woodruff needed just five innings to strike out nine Pirates last Sunday, and I would expect him to ramp up just a bit more than his previous pitch count of 85 pitches in that start. He brings in a 32.14% strikeout rate against this current White Sox roster. The White Sox have struck out at a 25.8% clip over the last two weeks, and my model projects Woodruff to punch out 8.73 batters in this one.
Andrew Heaney OVER 15.5 Outs (-105, DK) vs. SF
I'll wrap things up as far as pitchers go with Andrew Heaney's outs prop. Heaney hasn't been one to go deep into games this season, but I think he will in this spot. The Giants have been abysmal against left-handed pitching over the last 30 days, bringing in a .274 wOBA and just awful 57 wRC+ against southpaws in that span. Pair that with Heaney's 2.46 SIERA over the last two weeks and we're shaping up for some good value. My model projects Heaney to record 16.73 outs today.

MLB Hitter Prop Bets - Today's Betting Picks
Jose Altuve OVER 1.5 TB (-105, DK) vs. LAA
I'll start things off as far as hitters go with Jose Altuve. He'll take on Tyler Anderson, whose SIERA has regressed from a 5.16 to a 5.28 over the last two weeks. Altuve comes into this one on a bit of a heater, raising his wOBA to .612 over the last seven days. He projects to a .548 wOBA against Anderson's pitch types in this one, and projects to 2.72 total bases in this one. He's 3-11 with a homer off of Anderson for his career, and I think he gets to him today.
James Outman OVER 0.5 TB (-170, DK) vs. COL
I'll wrap things up by taking a look at Dodgers outfielder James Outman. Outman has been smoking the ball lately, bringing in a .510 wOBA over the last two weeks. His .389 wOBA against Colorado righty Peter Lambert's pitch types is very solid. Lambert's SIERA has significantly risen over the last two weeks, from a 4.54 season tally to a 5.72 mark. Outman is 1-1 off of Lambert in his career, and projects to 2.86 total bases today, providing the largest edge on the board to this point and making the juice worth the squeeze.
