Philadelphia Phillies vs Tampa Bay Rays: Zack Wheeler Over 7.5 Pitcher - Strikeouts (+300)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
Zack Wheeler needs to strike out 8 batters tonight for this bet to hit. At Citizens Bank Park, he usually gets around 8.5 strikeouts in a game, and the wind blowing out toward the outfield can help keep hitters off balance. He also averages about 102 pitches per game, giving him plenty of chances to rack up those strikeouts.
The Tampa Bay Rays have won 6 of their last 10 games, so they can swing the bat well. Wheeler has allowed an average of 2.4 walks in his home games, which could give Tampa some chances to connect. Still, with his strong strikeout history at this park, he has a solid chance to go over 7.5 tonight.
