Skubal Strikeouts O/U is 8.5

Looks high to me, he averages 8.3 at home, and 7.9 on the road.

He's gone over this number 9 times in 23 starts. He did have 13 Ks against this Twins lineup on June 29th, but the lineup is a lot different tonight vs then.

Any thoughts on this? Looking at hitting the Under -145

I really wanted to take his over after his last 2 starts but the weather is keeping me away

Dug a little deeper

Skubal has 6 games this year with 4 days rest, he's gone over 8.5, 3 of those 6 games. But he's had some of his best games on 4 days rest, with 11 Ks vs Bos, 13 Ks vs Cle and 13 Ks vs Minny.

He has 10 starts with 5 days rest, he's gone over 8.5 1 out of 10 times. That was a game vs the Brewers on April 14th.

What’d he do last time out?  Tells you about his current form.  Means more than 2 months ago.  I’d say under is the right side.  Only 4.2 innings last time out with 6 k’s.

Skubal pitches better on the road.. in terms of ERA.. 

I would take him under 1.5 walks.. he hasn't given up a walk or earned run in his last 3 road starts 

Skubal did have his shortest outing of the year last game, but still liking the under 8.5 here

He's had more 9 or more vs Twins once out of 13 appearance against them
