Welcome to the daily MLB player props picks! We’re looking at some of the most enticing player props and diving into why we like the picks.
Ronald Acuna Jr. O 1.5 Bases -110
Ronald Acuna Jr. is in the midst of a historic season and is currently hitting .327 with an impressive .961 OPS — he averaged .333 over his last 15 games. I would like Acuna to have a big night tonight because of his history against the Phillies’ projected starter, Aaron Nola. In 40 career at-bats against Nola, Acuna has hit .350 with four home runs against the right-hander. Even though the line doesn’t provide the best value, I feel confident about Acuna continuing his success against Nola.
Mike Yastrzemski O 1.5 Bases +150
Mike Yastrzemski has been extremely hot and has been a catalyst for the Giants’ recent hot streak. Over the last seven games, Yastrzemski has been hitting .310 and has four home runs. On top of that, Yastrzemski has a great history against Padres starter Yu Darvish. In 18 at-bats against Darvish, Yastrzemski has hit an impressive .389 to go along with three home runs. Especially at plus money, Yastrzemski is a great bet tonight and I like him to keep raking.
Austin Riley O 1.5 Bases + 105
Austin Riley delivered for us yesterday and we’re going to ride with him again today. Like yesterday, Riley has great numbers against the starter, Nola. Riley has had his number and in 45 career at-bats against Nola, has a crazy .444 batting average and five home runs. Riley has shown he can get a couple of hits or even hit the over with one swing of the bat against Nola. So, I like Riley to continue his success against the Phillies and their ace, so I like him at plus money tonight.
I like all these picks tonight and if you’re feeling just as confident as me, you could parlay all these picks at +918 odds. This would be a nice payout if all of these picks cash. Either way, best of luck to all tonight and hopefully we win some money.
