Friday’s Best MLB Sleeper Picks Player Predictions

Sleeper Record: 20-16

Yoshinobu Yamamoto More Than 4.5 Strikeouts (1.80x)

Despite the difficult matchup against the Padres, this line does not make sense. Yoshinobu Yamamoto is filthy. He struggled in his first start against San Diego in Korea but has looked sharp since. He struck out eight batters against the Cubs across five innings in his last start and had five punchouts in a rain-shortened start vs. the Cardinals. This line should be at 5.5, at the very least. Watch his highlights from the previous start and you’ll get it.
