Its Wednesday and that means theres baseball scattered throughout the day. I have a really nice a sortment of picks on tap for the evening window. If youre looking for strikeout or combo hitting prop, or just want to throw a dart at a dinger call, I have you covered. Lets dive in. Wednesdays top MLB prop bets Corbin Burnes under 6.5 strikeouts (-138, ) Orioles vs. Yankees, 6:35 p.m. ET Explore More The Orioles made a late offseason franchise-altering splash when they acquired Burnes from the Brewers to lead a young pitching staff on a World Series quest. There is no doubt he is still a fantastic pitcher and his underlying numbers back that notion. But hes not mi sing as many bats this season. He absolutely shoved in his Os debut by serving up 11 strikeouts, but he hasnt cleared Wednesdays 6.5 K projection in any of his five appearances since then. Andre Drummond Jersey According to Baseball Savant, Burnes whiff rate on his cutter and curveball are both down a bit, and those are his two most frequently used pitches. There is a huge difference in whiff rate on his curveball, as it was 48.8% last season, and thats down to 32.1% through six 2024 starts. Of course, Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge are , but this is a than in prior years. New York is only striking out 19.8% of the time against right-handed pitchers, good for the fifth-best mark in baseball. CJ Abrams over 1.5 hits + runs + RBI (-135, ) Nationals vs. Rangers, 8:05 p.m. ET The left-handed hitting Nationals shortstop is a budding superstar. Contact and speed has never been an i sue, but now hes developing more power. Hes hitting an unsustainable but ridiculous .406 with just seven strikeouts in 34 plate appearances vs. left-handed pitchers this season. CJ Abrams is enjoying a fantastic start. Getty Images Rangers southpaw Andrew Heaney is mostly a fastball-slider pitcher and hes really starting to lose his good stuff at this point of his career. There are several factors working in Abrams favor Wednesday, including: The Nationals being guaranteed ninth-inning at-bats as the road team. His threat to steal bases; he has seven thefts in nine attempts this season. The opposing pitcher; Heaney, who has a 5.02 xFIP and an ERA of 6.26, is striking out just 21.6% of hitters this season, his worst mark in almost a decade. In this matchup, Abrams should be able to get the job done on Wednesday. Jose Altuve to hit a home run (+425, ) Astros vs. Guardians, 8:10 p.m. ET Yordan Alvarezs name will get clicked on the most when it comes to home-run props for the Astros (and for good reason), but I like Wednesdays odds and matchup for Altuve. Triston McKenzie is not only pitching with a torn ligament in his elbow, hes actually throwing surprisingly well. Learn all you need to know about MLB Betting Read about the Learn all about But hes still a fly-ball pitcher whos had a few cupcake matchups with the Athletics and White Sox this season. McKenzie is throwing his four-seam fastball about 60% of the time, and Altuve owns a 14% barrel rate, with a team-leading .444 ISO against them dating back to the beginning of 2023. In a much smaller 2024 sample size, hes absolutely crushing four-seamers, with a 26% barrel rate and a solid 39% fly-ball rate. Mason Plumlee Jersey
