Astros vs Rockies MLB Player Prop Pick
Our PRO player prop projections are showing a sizeable edge on Cristian Javier's strikeout total.
The market consensus has set his strikeout over/under around 4.5, juiced to the under. That implies somewhere in between 3.6 and 3.9 strikeouts for this game, but we're projecting just 3.1, providing a nearly 22% edge against the books.
Javier has been brutal in his first few 2026 outings, striking out just three batters across 8 1/3 innings (7.1%) while walking nine (21.4%). He's allowed 12 earned runs so far (12.96 ERA).
Things might only get worse as he gets his third start at Coors Field — not exactly a pitcher's paradise.
