2-Unit Bet | MLB | Tarik Skubal (DET): Over 5.5 Ks

You currently can find this bet for -135 odds on DraftKings. We like it to -160.

Most people are not going to choose to target Tarik against the lower-K Houston Astros. With that being said, he has been a Stud with a capital S this season. Lefties have a 27% K rate against him and righties have a 30.9% K rate of their own. Lefties have been held in check to the tune of a .069/.226 line and righties have barely fared better, sitting at .135/.265 themselves. With him not projecting as well thanks to his elevated price point, it is going to cause people to fear him. Fear not as the Tigers have every incentive to let him throw deep into this one as he is the clear best pitcher on their entire roster by a very comfortable margin. With his ability to pitch deep into this one, he should be able to rack up enough Ks to cover this line. Lock in the over for Skubal!
