Feisty Reds can't be counted out and Alex Cobb not in good form.

A.Cobb u5.5 Ks-134

Available at FanDuel. Cobb is at home in a high-strikeout matchup, but this seems a bit above where you'd expect to find him. Cobb has gone back to using his curve more across his past nine starts. In that time, his strikeout rate is 18.3%, and he has topped 5.5 strikeouts twice. Granted, both of those were at home across just four total home starts, so he does get a boost there. But when he faced the Reds on the road after the All-Star break, he had no strikeouts across 4 1/3 innings. I have Cobb projected for 4.74 strikeouts, so this one feels a tick too high.
