Best MLB strikeout prop bets for September 11

5) Cole Ragans: Over 6.5 -125

Take the over on Cole Ragans today (Imagn)

Cole Ragans has a 29.6% strikeout rate and has been very reliable for the Kansas City Royals. Aside from a late-inning explosion in the first game of the series, the New York Yankees offense hasn't been that good lately, and Ragans has pitched very well. Take the over.

4) Hunter Brown: Under 7.5 -155

Take the under for Hunter Brown today (Imagn)

Hunter Brown has solid strikeout numbers this year for the Houston Astros: 25.2% K rate and 9.47 K/9. Today, he gets to face the Oakland Athletics. However, his line is high at 7.5, so take the under. Asking for eight strikeouts is a tall task for any pitcher.

3) Zack Wheeler: Under 7.5 -140

Take the under on Zack Wheeler (Imagn)

Zack Wheeler has been excellent this season, buoyed by very strong strikeout numbers. The Philadelphia Phillies pitcher is striking out 27.7% of batters he's faced. Still, the 7.5 line is pretty high, so it's better to take the under as he is up against the Tampa Bay Rays.

2) Shane Baz: Under 5.5 -165 (Safest pick of the day)

Shane Baz is today's safest pick (Imagn)

Shane Baz has not been great in the strikeout department. He's striking out just over one out of every five batters to the tune of a 7.53 K/9. He's facing the Philadelphia Phillies today, so take the under for our safest pick of the day.

1) Blake Snell: Over 7.5 +115 (Bold Prediction of the day)

Blake Snell is today's bold prediction (Imagn)

Blake Snell has pitched very well for the San Francisco Giants, including posting an absurd 32.7% strikeout rate and 12 K/9. Even still, the line is high and he's facing the Milwaukee Brewers, which is why he's today's bold pick. Take the over anyway.
