5) MacKenzie Gore: Over 5.5 +105

MacKenzie Gore should get six strikeouts on Sunday (Imagn)

4) Hunter Brown: Over 5.5 -125

Pick Hunter Brown to hit the over on Sunday (Imagn)

Chris Bassitt should hit the over on strikeouts (Imagn)

Chris Bassitt has not had the greatest season for the Toronto Blue Jays, but he hasn't been bad. He sports a slightly below-average K rate of 21. 9% and an 8.58 K/9. Nevertheless, with the disappointing Oakland Athletics on the docket on Sunday, the odds are promising for him to go over 5.5 strikeouts.

Dylan Cease should get eight strikeouts on Sunday (Imagn)

Dylan Cease has struck out 32.4% of the batters he has faced this year for the San Diego Padres. That is one of the best marks in baseball, and it's a good indicator that he should hit the over most days. That includes Sunday, even though the line is fairly high.

1) Tyler Glasnow: Over 7.5 -160

Take the over on Tyler Glasnow on Sunday (Imagn)

Tyler Glasnow has an impressive 33.1% strikeout rate. That means the Los Angeles Dodgers star is one of the best strikeout pitchers in baseball. His line is high, but the odds are promising for him to get eight or more strikeouts vs. the Pittsburgh Pirates.
