Is there anything better than early afternoon Major League Baseball with games going on all day? The only thing better that I can think of is picking out player props to win some money during today’s slate of games! Underdog Fantasy has some player props available for the games today and, after crunching the numbers and analyzing the board, I have selected my best ones for today’s MLB games over at Underdog Fantasy. Let’s dive in!

 


 

MLB Underdog Top Player Prop Plays

 

 

Mookie Betts OVER 1.5 Total Bases

Chris Paddack will make his debut donning his new Minnesota threads, but it comes against an all-too-familiar foe. Paddack's track record against the Dodgers is rough, as he allowed three or more earned runs in five of six starts vs. LA – including four or more in three starts. All in all, it's the same Paddack but in a different jersey, and he's 1-3 with a 7.07 ERA against the Dodgers overall. Mookie Betts has three hits (one HR) in three at-bats against the former Padre and, while he's eclipsed 1.5 total bases just once this season, I'm loving the over today.

 

 

Aaron Judge OVER 1.5 Total Bases

José Berríos' first outing was disastrous, as he recorded just one out while allowing four earned runs against the Rangers. Now, he gets to face the Yankees in Yankee Stadium – and his numbers there are discouraging. For his career, Berrios has posted a 4.73 ERA against the Yankees but his ERA jumps to 6.43 with a 1.71 WHIP at Yankee Stadium, specifically. Aaron Judge's BvP data is exceptional against Berrios (7-for-12, one HR) and if there's anywhere in particular Judge loves to play, it's at home – as seen by his career .298 average at the park.

 

 

Austin Meadows OVER 1.5 Total Bases

Austin Meadows is 8-for-23 with two home runs in his career against Nathan Eovaldi, good for a .348 average and .458 wOBA. Meadows also posted a .363 wOBA against righties in 2021, not to mention an .871 OPS – which is certainly helping to quell my concern about Eovaldi being tougher on left-handed hitters. Interestingly enough, I'm loving any over for Eovaldi in terms of strikeouts today against Detroit (if we get such a prop), but Meadows will get the best of Eovaldi at least once today – likely for extra bases.
