Yankees vs. Blue Jays prop picks: Gerrit Cole is still a strikeout threat

The New York Yankees secured the AL East with a win last night. The Toronto Blue Jays are still jockeying for playoff position. Gerrit Cole is still a strikeout threat.

Gerrit Cole is still a strikeout threat. Alejandro Kirk and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. have had success against him before. Aaron Judge is the main attraction for the game. Gleyber Torres is in a great position to keep cashing in runs.

Gerrit Cole has a 4.94 ERA and eight home runs allowed in September. He's been piling up strikeouts lately. His strikeout rate is 33%, his K/9 rate 11.7%, and his put-away percentage 35%. His four-seamer has become his most effective pitch recently. Six of his eight homeruns have come off the four seamer.

Vladdy and Kirk have recorded 1+ hits each against Cole. Guerrero is 9-for-24 against the right-hander with two doubles and two home runs. Kirk has four hits in 11 at-bats against him.

Gleyber Torres has driven in Aaron Judge in each of the last two games. He has 13 RBI in his last seven games and has cleared this prop in five of those games so far.
