MLB Pitcher Prop Bets - Today's Betting Picks

Logan Gilbert OVER 5.5 strikeouts (-150 DraftKings Sportsbook)

Gilbert has gone over this total five times in 2022 and is currently averaging six strikeouts per game. The matchup here is quite ripe as well as the Rangers are currently posting a K rate of 24.9% vs. right-handed pitching over the previous two weeks, which is ranked seventh-worst in the league over that span.

Gerrit Cole OVER 8.5 strikeouts (+105 DraftKings Sportsbook)

Let's take a shot at some plus-money with Gerrit Cole here. He has gone over this total in four of his previous five starts and has a great matchup against Detroit tonight. The Tigers are currently posting a K rate of 25% vs. righties over the previous two weeks, which is ranked fifth-worst in the league over that span. They are also posting just an 84 wRC+ mark, so Cole should be able to get relatively deep in this one. Cole has also thrown at least six innings in each of his previous seven starts.

Nathan Eovaldi OVER 5.5 strikeouts (-115 DraftKings Sportsbook)

Eovaldi will be facing Oakland tonight who has posted a K rate of 24,5% vs. right-handers over the previous two weeks, which ranks eighth-worst in the league over that span. Meanwhile, Eovaldi has been steady this season as he has reached at least six strikeouts in seven games, including four of his previous five outings.

MLB Hitter Prop Bets - Today's Betting Picks

Cesar Hernandez OVER 1.5 total bases (+110 DraftKings Sportsbook)

Hernandez has been a tad cold since we last that him in this article, but only over the previous few games. He gets a solid matchup tonight against Mike Minor who is making his first start of the season. In 2021, Minor allowed 21 bombs and posted a 5.37 ERA against right-handed hitters. Hernandez has posted a solid .362 wOBA with five doubles across 68 at-bats vs. left-handers in 2022.

Randy Arozarena OVER 1.5 total bases (+125 DraftKings Sportsbook)

Arozarena has hit right-handed pitching to the tune of a .314 wOBA with five home runs and 10 doubles this season. He will be facing Vince Velasquez who has allowed righties to clobber him by giving up six home runs and posting a 7.05 FIP paired with a 1.60 WHIP.
