OVER 5.5 Strikeouts Mike Minor (Cincinnati) +120
Mike Minor has a 6.31 ERA and continues to fill in as a starter as the Reds finish out a miserable season, Minor can be counted on for 5+ innings and while his K/9 is just 7.8 this season his career strikeout rates are much higher, even as recently as 2020 posting a 9.9 K/9. Minor is still very effective against left-handed batters holding those hitters to a .224 batting average and Pittsburgh is one of the most left-handed heavy teams in the league, usually still starting 3-4 left-handers vs. left-handed starters. Minor had a season high eight strikeouts vs. Pittsburgh in July and the Pirates are the second most strikeout-prone team in MLB this season, including a 26 percent K rate over the past two weeks.
