Drew Rasmussen MLB Underdog Fantasy Pick: Higher than 6.5 Strikeouts

Rasmussen is 7-4 with a 2.78 ERA and posted a 0.82 ERA across five June starts before a rough outing at Houston, his last time out. He has already blanked the Yankees twice this season, including a seven-strikeout gem back in April.

Tonight, he gets New York at home, and the Yankees are ice cold, hitting .171 over their last 10 games with a strikeout rate that has climbed to 31.2 percent over the last two weeks. Take it.

Bryce Miller MLB Underdog Fantasy Pick: Higher than 5.5 Strikeouts

Miller is 4-2 with a 1.71 ERA and leads AL pitchers in K:BB ratio at 12.4. His last start was electric: seven innings, eight strikeouts, and a no-hit bid carried into the seventh against the Angels.

Tonight, he travels to Miami, and even against a lower-strikeout Marlins lineup, his swing-and-miss stuff has been sharp enough to miss bats against anybody right now. Lock it in.
