Cam Schlittler ParlayPlay MLB Picks Today, 10/5: Baseball Projections + More

Monday's top two ParlayPlay plays both go Higher, with the AL Cy Young favorite and the AL's strikeout leader facing must-answer spots in the ALDS. Our MLB DFS Projections have both arms flagged as strong plays tonight. 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.

Cam Schlittler MLB ParlayPlay Pick: Higher than 6.5 Strikeouts

Schlittler fanned 10 over 6.1 scoreless innings against Boston in the Wild Card Series, backed by a 31.4 percent strikeout rate and a 1.16 road ERA. He has already struck out 21 Rays across three starts this season. Tampa Bay's strikeout rate against right-handed pitching has climbed from 18.0 percent for the season to 23.2 percent over the last two weeks, which makes the 6.5 line very reachable. That is the number. That is the play.

Gavin Williams MLB ParlayPlay Pick: Higher than 7.5 Strikeouts

Williams led the American League with 248 strikeouts and a major-league-high 11 double-digit strikeout games. He struck out 28 White Sox hitters in 20.1 innings across four starts this season, and Chicago's strikeout rate against right-handed pitching sits at 25.3 percent over the last two weeks. The ten days off since his last start are a fair concern, but a simulated game last week and a 2.84 ERA at home keep the over live. Do not overthink it.
