Chris Paddack Player Prop Bets

Paddack recorded 10 strikeouts over seven shutout innings on Monday in a win over the White Sox. Prior to that start, Paddack was obliterated by the Orioles, allowing nine runs on 12 hits in 5 1/3 innings.

Zach Eflin Player Prop Bets

Zach Eflin has great value in fantasy leagues for the April 26 game against the lowly Chicago White Sox. Betting on Eflin and the Tampa Bay Rays might make sense if not for the -210 price tag.

Kyle Gibson Player Prop Bets: Hits Allowed

Kyle Gibson led the Batlimore Orioles with 15 wins through 192 innings in 2023 but his ERA came in at a less impressive 4.73 and had 157 strikeouts.
