Let us get into the picks.

 

 

 

Parker Messick MLB ParlayPlay Pick: Higher than 4.5 Strikeouts

Messick's 8.9 K/9 is modest, but 20 straight starts of at least five innings gives him plenty of chances to reach a low total like this one even against a tough matchup.

He gets Tampa Bay today, a lineup that strikes out at just 18.9% against lefties, but his career track record specifically against the Rays offsets that. That is the number. That is the play.

Jacob Misiorowski MLB ParlayPlay Pick: Higher than 8.5 Strikeouts

Misiorowski's 13.5 K/9 and 39.4% strikeout rate are the best marks in the sport, and even in a limited last outing off a layoff, he still struck out six in four innings.

Tonight he gets Colorado, and the Rockies' strikeout rate against right-handers has climbed to 21.4% over the last two weeks. Do not overthink it.
