What is up, Fantasy Alarm family? Our MLB DFS Projections point to two standout strikeout prop plays tonight on ParlayPlay, built off-season stats, current form, and matchup splits against lefties and righties for the Tuesday, July 7 slate. For a deeper look at how tonight's arms project pitch by pitch, check out our MLB DFS Pitcher Projections, and line-shop today's strikeout numbers with our MLB Odds Finder before you build your board. Let us get into the picks.

Jacob deGrom MLB ParlayPlay Pick: Higher than 7.5 Strikeouts

DeGrom is 7-5 with a 3.48 ERA and 115 strikeouts through 95.2 innings, a 10.8 K/9 that ranks among the elite marks in the league. His last start was as clean as it gets, seven innings and just two earned runs against Cleveland.

He stays home in Texas against the Angels tonight, and Los Angeles strikes out against right-handed pitching at a 24.9 percent rate, tops on this entire slate. That is the number. That is the play.

 

 

 

Zack Wheeler MLB ParlayPlay Pick: Higher than 7.5 Strikeouts

Wheeler sits at 8-1 with a 2.36 ERA and 84 strikeouts in 80 innings, a 9.4 K/9 mark that has him pitching like an ace all season. His last outing against Pittsburgh got messy on the run column, but he still punched out a season-high 10 in just 4.2 innings.

Tonight, he travels to Cincinnati, and the Reds whiff against right-handed pitching at a 24.8 percent clip. Wheeler has gone eight-plus strikeouts in three straight starts against the Reds. Do not overthink it.
