Foster Griffin ParlayPlay MLB Picks Today, 9/4: Baseball Projections + More

Friday's top two ParlayPlay plays both go over, with a trade-deadline pickup thriving in his new home and a two-time Cy Young winner pitching like his old self since returning from injury. 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.

Foster Griffin MLB ParlayPlay Pick: Higher than 5.5 Strikeouts

Griffin has been outstanding since arriving in Cleveland at the trade deadline, backing a 15-4 record and 3.21 ERA while pitching at least five innings in each of his last four starts. He already owns a 2-0 record with a 1.35 ERA in two career appearances against Detroit. Detroit's 22.8 percent strikeout rate against left-handed pitching for the season has climbed to 24.1 percent over the last two weeks, a favorable matchup on both fronts. That combination of a proven track record against this exact opponent and consistent recent form gives him a real path to clearing this number. That is the number. That is the play.

Blake Snell MLB ParlayPlay Pick: Higher than 7.5 Strikeouts

Snell has pitched like a Cy Young winner since returning from an elbow procedure, allowing just three runs across 23 innings with a dominant 31-to-10 strikeout-to-walk ratio. His last outing produced 10 strikeouts over five innings against Detroit, the second time in four starts since his return he has reached double digits. Washington's 24.1 percent strikeout rate against left-handed pitching has climbed to 25.4 percent over the last two weeks, a strong matchup on both timeframes. Do not overthink it.
