Foster Griffin o3.5 Strikeouts (-112)
CLE @ TBR · 8:00 PM ET
Griffin struck out 4, 5 and 7 batters in his last three outings, clearing 3.5 in every single one of them even in the start where he was yanked after 2.1 innings. His 32.8% strikeout rate and 27.6% whiff rate over that stretch are both well above average, and his own bat-missing ability travels regardless of how long he's left in the game. The market has this at a pick'em price despite a perfect recent track record against the number.

LAD -1.5 (+135)
LAD @ MIL · 5:10 PM ET
Yamamoto has a 1.59 xERA over his last three starts with excellent 18.4% hard-hit and 32.1% whiff rates, and he has gone 7, 7 and 6 innings in that stretch; his two meetings with Milwaukee this season (both within the last two months) were 1 ER over 7 IP and 1 ER over 6 IP with 9 strikeouts. Henderson, by contrast, has gone exactly 5 innings in each of his last three starts, and Milwaukee's bullpen behind him is carrying an elevated 4.7 innings of stress over the past two days, so LAD gets extended access to a tired pen most nights. That combination supports a multi-run LAD win more than the plus-money price on the run line reflects.
