Underdog Fantasy MLB Daily Pick ‘Em Plays – May 3
Chris Paddack – Higher than 4.5 Strikeouts
Just two starts ago, Paddack erupted for 10 strikeouts against the lowly White Sox. While the Sox of the other color have been much better record-wise, they’ve actually struck out a significant amount more. The White Sox are averaging 8.67 strikeouts per game (17th in MLB), and the Red Sox are going down on strikes 9.77 times per game (27th). While I may not expect him to get double digits again, five should be well within his reach.
Patrick Corbin – Higher than 15.5 Pitching Outs
Corbin has a blisteringly high 6.82 ERA entering this game with the Blue Jays. However, due to their less-than-stellar pitching, the Nationals have just let him get deep in the game. He’s recorded at least 16 outs in four of his five starts this season, including a pair of games with the Dodgers and one with the Phillies. Toronto is 28th in MLB in runs scored, so there is no reason to think he can’t make this a longer outing.
Michael Lorenzen – Higher than 3.5 Strikeouts
The Royals have been stellar at putting the bat on the ball, but I think this is a case of the stat projections taking that too much into consideration. Lorenzen is one start removed from striking out 7 in Atlanta. He has averaged 4.67 strikeouts per start on the season. It might trend a bit lower, but I really think he can get four or more here in Kansas City.
