Max Fried aims for his major league-best seventh win when he takes the mound for the New York Yankees against the host Seattle Mariners on Tuesday in the middle contest of their three-game series. Fried (6-0, 1.05 ERA) has been stellar in his first season with the Yankees after spending eight with the Atlanta Braves, as he is tied with three others for the most wins in the majors and leads all pitchers in ERA. Fried has allowed one earned run across 27 2/3 innings over his last four starts. The Mariners counter with Bryan Woo (4-1, 3.25), who is 2-1 in three career turns against New York but was tagged by the Athletics for a season-high five runs over six frames in his last outing.
Sportsbooks have set Woo’s total strikeout player prop at 6.5 (Over +127, Under -168), while Fried’s is 5.5 (Over -146, Under +109). The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every MLB game 10,000 times, rates Woo Under 6.5 as a 3.5-star play and Fried Over 5.5 as a 3-star play on its five-star scale.
However, the model has found better value elsewhere on Tuesday’s 15-game schedule. There is one pitcher strikeout player prop that the model has rated at 5 stars that would pay plus-money and three others at 4.5 stars. Here they are:
Michael Soroka Over 4.5 strikeouts (+101) vs. Braves (7:15 p.m. ET)
Rating: 4.5 stars
Model projection: 5.2 strikeouts
Soroka, who is facing his former team for the first time, will be making just his third start of the season and second since missing the entire month of April with a right biceps strain. The 27-year-old right-hander appeared to be fully recovered in his last outing as he registered eight strikeouts over five innings against the Cleveland Guardians, his highest total since fanning nine batters versus the San Diego Padres in July 2019. Soroka could approach that number as he faces a Braves lineup that includes Austin Riley, who is sixth in the majors with 51 strikeouts.
Ben Brown Under 6.5 strikeouts (-110) vs. Marlins (7:40 p.m. ET)
Rating: 4.5 stars
Model projection: 5.4 strikeouts
Brown is coming off an outing against the San Francisco Giants in which he recorded a season-high nine strikeouts over five innings. However, it was the first time in seven starts and one relief appearance this year that the 25-year-old righty went Over this number. In fact, Brown has registered more than six strikeouts only twice in 15 starts and eight relief stints during his major-league career.
Jack Leiter Under 5.5 strikeouts (-100) vs. Rockies (8:05 p.m. ET)
Rating: 4.5 stars
Model projection: 4.4 strikeouts
Leiter has gone Over this number just once in his first five starts this season, recording six strikeouts over five innings on Apr. 2 against the Cincinnati Reds. The son of former major league All-Star left-hander Al Leiter, he fanned just three batters across 5 1/3 frames versus the Boston Red Sox in his last outing. The 25-year-old righty registered a total of five strikeouts over 7 2/3 innings in his previous two turns.
Dylan Cease Under 7.5 strikeouts (+106) vs. Angels (9:40 p.m. ET)
Rating: 5 stars
Model projection: 6.0 strikeouts
Cease recorded a season-high nine strikeouts over 6 2/3 innings against the New York Yankees in his last start but exited with a cramp in his forearm. That could be a cause for concern regarding the 29-year-old right-hander, who didn’t go Over this number in any of his previous seven turns this season. Cease finished with Under 7.5 strikeouts in his outing versus the Angels last year, fanning six batters in as many innings.

NBA Draft Lottery takeaways: Mavericks stun, Spurs have options, 76ers cash in
John Fanta College Basketball Broadcaster and Reporter <!--> --> It was as stunning as it was wild and unpredictable all rolled into one. On Monday night in Chicago, Nico Harrison and the Dallas Mavericks received an unimaginable gift from the basketball gods. A get-out-of-jail-free card. A second chance to right the ship after their decision to move on from Luka Dončić and trade him to Los Angeles for Anthony Davis, in what has already been determined an all-time swing-and-a-miss by Dallas for a variety of reasons. It is still surreal to say this: the Mavericks, with a 1.8% chance to come out with the No. 1 pick in the draft, won the lottery and made themselves hundreds of millions of dollars in the process because they now get to select Cooper Flagg. It marked the fourth-lowest percentage chance of reeling in […]

Muller rechaça status de Abel Ferreira, do Palmeiras, no Brasil: “Exagero”
Abel Ferreira, em jogo do Palmeiras (Foto: Cesar Greco/Palmeiras/by Canon) Muller não tem dúvidas do melhor treinador do futebol brasileiro na atualidade. Diante do trabalho histórico de Abel Ferreira no Palmeiras, o comentarista foi convicto ao colocar o português no patamar mais elevado. Porém, levando em conta os profissionais que fizeram história no passado, o status de top-1 de todos os tempos é visto como algo bastante exagerado. “É o melhor treinador do futebol brasileiro de agora.”, disse Muller, no podcast Tá no Jogo, da Gazeta Esportiva. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE “Não, aí é exagero (melhor de todos os tempos). A gente não pode falar uma coisa dessa. ‘O Abel é o maior treinador da história do futebol brasileiro’. Aí você chutou a cruz.”, acrescentou. Muller sugeriu Abel Ferreira na seleção brasileira Antes do anúncio de Ancelotti, Muller sinalizou Abel Ferreira como […]
MLB was wrong to reinstate Pete Rose: Why nothing has changed about hits leader’s baseball gambling
Getty Images Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred announced Tuesday that Pete Rose and 16 others, including "Shoeless" Joe Jackson, have been reinstated from the permanently ineligible list. Among the most meaningful changes associated with that decision is that these dead players will now be eligible for Hall of Fame induction by committee (rather than BBWAA vote). For baseball, that was the wrong decision.First, let's review. The facts of the case are these, and they are indisputable: MLB Rule 21(d) states: "(2) Any player, umpire, or Club or League official or employee, who shall bet any sum whatsoever upon any baseball game in connection with which the bettor has a duty to perform, shall be declared permanently ineligible."That rule was instituted in 1921 and was posted in every clubhouse for decades. Pete Rose willingly violated the rule both as a player and […]
Bengals’ Trey Hendrickson drama is as avoidable as it is out of control: Dehner Jr.
CINCINNATI — As I walked across the intersection of Central Avenue and West Pete Rose Way outside Paycor Stadium, the day felt like a normal, boring OTA Tuesday in May.That is, until a man in a golf shirt and black hat driving a large SUV sitting at the red light called out my name and waved me over.AdvertisementIt was Trey Hendrickson. He wanted to talk.As I stood at his window in the intersection and a couple of cars came uncomfortably close to my backpack, we moved to a safer spot for Hendrickson to politely make clear his objective of surprisingly flying in for what turned into his media day in Cincinnati.No, this wasn’t the intersection of Central and Rose anymore. This was the intersection of surreal and absurd.Or, given the recent past of the Bengals, just another Tuesday in Cincinnati.This […]
