*Odds via BetMGM as of Sunday afternoon.
The Colorado Rockies wrap up a three-game interleague series with the New York Yankees on Sunday at Coors Field.
The Rockies won the first game on Friday night, but the Yankees answered back with a 6-3 victory on Saturday night.
Chase Anderson will be on the bump for the Rockies while Gerrit Cole will start for the Yankees in Sunday's matinee.
Our algorithm has identified an edge on a Gerrit Cole player prop at BetMGM. The prognostication is expecting Cole to have his way against a bad Rockies lineup.
It's a bet on the over.
Our models consider quantitative and qualitative factors for every angle of this game — including rest, matchups, stylistic differences, lingering injuries, history and more — to come up with a fair value line for every MLB player prop on the market.
Gerrit Cole Player Prop Prediction, Projection
Cole is back to his All-Star ways for the Yankees this season with a 2.85 ERA and 9-2 record.
Although he will be pitching at a hitter-friendly park, the prognostication expects Cole to have no problem getting strikeouts against the Rockies.
The model indicates the likelihood of Cole hitting the over on his strikeouts is higher than what sportsbooks believe. BetMGM has set the total for over 6.5 strikeouts at -130, while the under is +100. That's the best price on the over in the market.
The model predicts Cole will have 8.3 strikeouts this afternoon, good enough for over a 15% betting edge on the over.
Do keep in mind that these algorithms work best when you wager with the same size unit for each individual bet.
Pick: Gerrit Cole Over 6.5 Strikeouts (-130)
