Max Meyer MLB Chalkboard Fantasy Pick: Higher than 5.5 Strikeouts

Max Meyer is a priority target for your cards today. Meyer has been an absolute weapon on the mound, carrying an elite 27.2-percent strikeout rate and an elite 10.1 K/9 mix while hitting the Higher on this line in 6-of-10 starts. Today he faces a New York Mets lineup that ranks 19th on the full season but has shown a notable short-term slide in discipline, hanging around a 24.1-percent strikeout rate over the last 14 days against righties. Our MLB DFS Projections strongly favor a high punchout outing, making the Higher a fantastic selection for your Chalkboard MLB Picks.

 

 

 

Taj Bradley MLB Chalkboard Fantasy Pick: Higher than 5.5 Strikeouts

We are also identifying significant value on Taj Bradley as a top choice for your card today. Bradley carries an impressive elite 27.2-percent strikeout rate alongside an elite 10.2 K/9 baseline while staying Higher than his line in 6-of-9 starts this season. Facing a Pittsburgh Pirates lineup today that has seen its rolling 14-day strikeout rate against righties climb to 23.9-percent, Bradley's premium bat-missing ability and reliable command give him an exceptional ceiling. Our current MLB DFS Projections suggest a highly efficient performance, meaning he is highly likely to clear this total.
