Detroit Tigers vs Pittsburgh Pirates: Jake Mangum Over 1.5 Batter - Strikeouts (+573)

Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing

Jake Mangum has been struggling lately, averaging no hits over his last three games. However, he's been striking out about 1.3 times per game during that stretch, which makes this bet interesting. The opposing pitcher allows nearly 5 runs for every nine innings he pitches, so there could be chances for Mangum to get into tough spots and add to his strikeout total. While this matchup favors the Tigers, it's still risky since Mangum has not been hitting well. The ballpark also tends to keep home runs down, which could create more strikeout opportunities. Overall, betting on Mangum to strike out over 1.5 times feels like a solid play, especially at those odds. Just remember, a bet can lose, and you never know how a game will unfold.
