Phillies vs. Blue Jays Best MLB Prop Bet
- Dylan Cease OVER 6.5 Strikeouts (-132)
In today's edition of Betting $100 Every Day for a Year, I broke down why I'm betting the OVER on Dylan Cease's strikeout total:
Dylan Cease is averaging a blistering 13.4 strikeouts per nine innings pitched this season. He has gone over 6.5 strikeouts in five straight starts, and now he gets to face a Phillies team that has the highest strikeout percentage in the Majors over the past 30 days at 24.8%. I won't hesitate to bet the OVER on his strikeout total tonight.
Phillies vs. Blue Jays Prediction and Pick
I think the UNDER is the only bet to place for this pitching duel. Zack Wheeler (2.31 ERA) and Dylan Cease (3.05 ERA) have put together two of the best seasons amongst MLB starting pitchers this season.
Additionally, neither offense has been good this season. The Blue Jays enter the game ranking 21st in wRC+ with an OPS of .698, while the Phillies rank 91st in wRC+ with an OPS of .688.
Let's root for the pitchers tonight and bet the UNDER.
Pick: UNDER 7.5 (-120) via DraftKings
