Monday’s Best MLB Player Prop Bets
Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.
Luis Arraez To Record 2+ Total Bases (+100)
The Marlins are one of the hottest baseball teams, winning 12 of 15 games. The offense has been locked in, scoring 5.4 runs per game with a .419 slugging percentage.
Not only is Arraez their top hitter, but he’s one of the best in baseball with a .380 AVG and just a 5.4 strikeout percentage. He has a decent sample size against Jose Berrios to have confidence in him, going 3-for-10 with a triple and 0% strikeout and whiff rate.
Carlos Santana To Record 2+ Total Bases (+100)
The Pirates have had dramatic peaks and valleys this season. They are fortunate that the N.L. Central doesn’t have a standout team. After starting the season 20-9, they have gone 14-27 and are on a six-game losing streak.
They might be able to pull out of this funk against Drew Smyly, who they recently scored five runs off in their last matchup. Santana had a great day at the plate in that game, going 2-for-4 with four RBI, and since that game, the veteran is batting .368 with a 1.118 OPS.
James Paxton OVER 6.5 Strikeouts (-110)
The Red Sox are last in the ultra-competitive A.L. East, but they are still in the hunt to get a playoff spot through the Wild Card. You would believe a last place team would have a large disadvantage when taking on a first-place team, but the Red Sox have a better record than the Twins.
Paxton gets the start, and his strikeout abilities will help him tremendously. His 33.4-percent rate is in the 94th percentile, and he faces a Minnesota lineup with the worse strikeout rate in the league.
