Zac Eflin's upcoming matchup against the Kansas City Royals is a do or die game for the Baltimore Orioles. This presents an interesting opportunity to jump on the under 3.5 strikeouts prop. Let's dive into the details to see why this is a solid pick.

Eflin has faced the Royals multiple times, and his strikeout performance has been relatively modest. Over his last four games against KC, he has a total of 17 strikeouts. However, his two most recent performances against the Royals have shown a downward trend with only a total of 3 strikeouts over 8 innings in those last 2 games. This inconsistency definitely plays a factor in considering the under for this K prop.

Additionally, the Royals' lineup has shown resilience against Eflin in the past, with players like Paul Dejong, Bobby Witt Jr. and Hunter Renfroe having career success against him, which will limit his strikeout opportunities. The Royals as a team are incredibly patient at the plate and are ranked 2nd in the league in fewest strikeouts. Also with this being an elimination game for the Orioles there is very little room for error. Any sign of trouble for Efflin will lead to a quick hook which further supports the under.

Considering Eflin's recent decline in strikeouts and his historical performance against the Royals, the under 3.5 strikeouts prop is a well supported bet for this pivotal postseason matchup. Let’s lock this up and secure that DUB!
