Best MLB player props: Strikeouts should be aplenty in Phillies-Braves

Philadelphia Phillies ace Aaron Nola hasn’t exactly been bad this season, but the team hasn’t won a single one of his starts since the opener.

Regardless, the righty regularly pitches into the sixth inning and ranks top five this season in strikeouts per nine innings. His Atlanta Braves counterpart on Thursday, Kyle Wright, also ranks top 10 while seeing the fruits of his labor pay off to the tune of a 4-2 record and 2.49 ERA.

Their duel headlines my top player props to watch for Thursday’s slate of games.
