So why wouldn't defendants blurt out that this would be their third strike? Or would that trigger death penalty?

Depending on the defendants' strategy this approach might backfire and isn't useful if you're looking for a not-guilty verdict. "Oh, that guy had a criminal history? 2 strikes already? Yeah, he probably did it."

Of course it wouldn't "trigger death penalty."
