The MLB schedule is heating up with all 30 teams in action, presenting numerous betting opportunities for players. Cole Ragans of the Kansas City Royals is set to face the Detroit Tigers, a team that ranks among the highest in strikeouts. Ragans boasts a remarkable strikeout rate of 36.6% early this season, making his over 7.5 strikeouts a promising wager. Meanwhile, Jose Altuve of the Houston Astros is expected to shine, with his over 1.5 hits, runs, and RBIs against a struggling Kyle Hart. Altuve's .311 batting average and favorable matchup against left-handed pitchers suggest a productive day ahead. Lastly, Luis L. Ortiz of the Pittsburgh Pirates is also worth watching, as he aims to exceed 4.5 strikeouts against the Cleveland Guardians, a team that has been prone to strikeouts this season.
