Max Fried UNDER 5.5 Strikeouts -165 2units (Braves):

There is definitely a lot of juice on this play but I love the play. Fried is going for his second start of the season, he pitched 5 innings and recorded 5 strikeouts in his first start. Our Data Dashboard Expert Luke has him projected for only 4 Ks. So, we have a pretty big edge tonight. He faces some tough bats for the Rays tonight. They are in the bottom half of the league in K%. With top half in Slugging and OBP%. They are able to get on enough to prevent Ks. One thing the Rays do struggle with are they are in the bottom half of the league in Contact % and SwStr% (Swing and a miss %) so they aren’t getting contact at a high enough rate to be extremely comfortable in them. What the Rays do possess though is a very low F-Strike% per Fangraphs, they rank one of the best at only 42%. This means they are only generating a strike on their first pitch at an average of 42%. This sets them up nicely for success not trying to climb out of a 0-1 count. Which helps me deal with their low contact %.
