Wednesday’s Best MLB PrizePicks Player Predictions
MLB PrizePicks Record This Season: 30-26-1
Logan Gilbert More Than 6 Strikeouts
The Oakland A’s continue to strike out left and right. Over the past 30 days, they have the third highest K% (26.6%). The last 13 right-handed starters to face them have found at least six strikeouts. Ten of those 13 have exceeded this line. Logan Gilbert ranks in the 76th percentile in Called-Strikes+Whiff rate and is in the 70th percentile in K% amongst starting pitchers. If teammate George Kirby can strike out nine against the Athletics, Gilbert can get to seven.
Paul Skenes Less Than 7 Strikeouts
The hype is real on Paul Skenes, and this line is also inflated because of it. He’s facing one of the best lineups in baseball with the Dodgers in town. While they haven’t been at their best more recently, they’re still an extremely difficult lineup to navigate for any starter. Twenty-two of the last 25 starters to face them have failed to go over this line.
Patrick Corbin More Than 2.5 Earned Runs
Patrick Corbin is a piñata. We all should know this by now. He has allowed three or more earned runs in eight of his 12 outings this season and takes on a Mets team that has been smacking lefties. It’s a small sample, but New York has the best wRC+ (170) against southpaws across the past two weeks. Five of the last six left-handed starters to face them have allowed four or more earned runs against them.
