Tampa Bay Rays vs New York Yankees: Gerrit Cole Over 7.5 Pitcher - Strikeouts (+520)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing
Gerrit Cole has been striking out batters left and right, and he's taking the mound against the Tampa Bay Rays. The Rays have been tough lately but they do have a knack for swinging and missing, which makes this a good spot for Cole. With his ability to rack up strikeouts and the Rays' tendency to chase pitches, it feels like he could hit that over.
The Yankees and Rays are both playing well, but the competition is tight. Cole's performance has been solid, and while the Rays have a decent lineup, it's not out of the question for him to get those strikeouts. The biggest risk here is how close the two teams are, which can lead to unpredictable game moments. Still, if anyone can keep those strikeouts coming, it's Cole.
