Spencer Arrighetti MLB Chalkboard Fantasy Pick: Higher than 5.5 Strikeouts

Spencer Arrighetti on the Higher at even money is the headline play on our Chalkboard card today, and the matchup is as good as it gets. Arrighetti is 7-2 with a 2.57 ERA and has been the best story in Houston baseball this season, anchoring an injury-ravaged rotation with a deep six-pitch mix that misses bats. Tonight, he faces a Detroit lineup that has struck out at a 28.0% clip against right-handed pitching over the last two weeks, one of the highest marks in all of baseball over that span and well above their season-long number. A pitcher with a sub-3 ERA and genuine swing-and-miss upside against a lineup whiffing at nearly 30% lately is exactly the value our MLB DFS Projections are built to identify. Get it in.

Taj Bradley MLB Chalkboard Fantasy Pick: Higher than 6.5 Strikeouts

Taj Bradley on the Higher is the second leg of our premium Chalkboard card today, and his breakout 2026 deserves more attention than it has gotten. Bradley is 5-1 with a 2.77 ERA and 59 strikeouts, and his fastball has touched 100 mph this season, giving him the kind of velocity that translates to swing-and-miss totals. He struck out nine against Texas in his most recent outing and fanned a season-high 10 against Houston earlier this month. Tonight, he draws Colorado at home for the first time this year, and while the Rockies have tightened up against right-handed pitching over the last two weeks, their season-long strikeout rate and Bradley's velocity give him a clear path to clearing this number. Our MLB DFS Projections favor the Higher. Lock it in.
