Odds as of May 22nd.

McCullers Mows Down Rangers

Houston Astros righthander Lance McCullers Jr. has struck out 36 batters across his last 33 innings.

 

In 10 career starts against the Texas Rangers, he’s averaged 7.4 strikeouts per appearance. He’s gone over 6.5 strikeouts in seven of those 10 starts.

Texas Rangers Lance McCullers Jr. over 6.5 strikeouts (-161)

Baez Takes Mikolas Deep

Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez doesn’t get a lot of hits off of  Miles Mikolas, but when he does connect against the St. Louis Cardinals righthander, he makes it count.

Baez is batting just .222 (4-for-18) when facing Mikolas. However, on two of those four hits, Baez went deep.

Pick: Chicago Cubs Javier Baez 1+ home run (+375)
