MLB strikeout props for Sept. 11: We're OK with Rea

Bryan Woo under 4.5 Ks (-135 DraftKings)

Padres at Mariners, 9:40 p.m. ET

We're back to fading starting pitchers going up against the San Diego Padres, which has been quite a profitable strategy this season. The Padres have by far the lowest whiff rate (19.8 percent) and the highest chase contact rate (63.3 percent) in MLB this season. They also have the lowest strikeout rate against righties over the last two weeks (17.0 percent). Bryan Woo has been great for the Seattle Mariners, but he's not doing it by racking up strikeouts. He ranks only in the 15th percentile in whiff rate and the 29th percentile in strikeout rate this year. 

Colin Rea over 4.5 Ks (-113 FD)

Brewers at Giants, 9:45 p.m. ET

Rea ranks in the 24th percentile in strikeout rate (19.5 percent) and the seventh percentile in whiff rate (18.9 percent) this season, but he's been much better at forcing swings and misses of late. The Milwaukee Brewers right-hander has cleared this line in three of his last four starts and seven of his last nine, and this is a great matchup for him. The Giants have the second-highest strikeout rate against righties over the last two weeks (29.3 percent).
