Matt Manning Player Prop Prediction, Projection
Manning dealt with injuries to start the season. He returned to the mound in late June and has now started eight games this season.
The 25-year-old right-hander is 3-2 with a 4.32 ERA and 30 strikeouts over 41 2/3 innings.
BetMGM has set Manning's strikeout total at 4.5 with +110 to the over. The under is juiced to -145.
Koerner's model predicts Manning under 4.5 strikeouts should be -155, which gives us a betting edge on the under.
Do keep in mind that these algorithms work best when you wager with the same size unit for each individual bet.
Pick: Matt Manning Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-145)
