WATCH: Top MLB Player Prop for Philadelphia Phillies vs. Atlanta Braves

Our MLB Player Prop of the Day on Tucker Davidson

The Atlanta Braves are set to face the Philadelphia Phillies tonight and will send Tucker Davidson to the mound. Davidson has started twice this season, with no decisions in each and a 2.31 ERA. And I’m taking him to go Over 4.5 strikeouts against Philadelphia tonight (odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook). 

Davidson is a 25 year-old rookie, with his first MLB start late last year and two starts this season. He’s hit this strikeout Over in both of his starts this season, with five in each start. Those starts were against the New York Mets and the Washington Nationals. Both of those teams have far fewer strikeouts than the Phillies, with 457 and 487, respectively. 

The Phillies have 586 strikeouts this season, which is the fifth-highest in the league. 218 of those are against left-handed pitchers like Davidson, which is the second-highest in the league this season. And 291 of their strikeouts have come during home games like tonight’s. 

See more about this pick and why the Phillies strikeout rate this season convinced me to take the Over on Davidson’s strikeouts tonight. Also, visit our MLB page for more information on this game and all of our Best Bets.
