MLB Pitcher Prop Bets – Today’s Betting Picks
Yu Darvish OVER 6.5 strikeouts (-105 DraftKings Sportsbook)
Darvish will be facing the Pirates tonight who are currently striking out at a clip of 28.7% vs. right-handed pitching over the previous two weeks, which ranks dead last in baseball over that span. Darvish has managed to strike out at least seven in each of his previous two starts, which came against significantly better K-rate teams in the Dodgers and Braves. The Pirates are also posting just a 59 wRC+ mark vs. righties over the previous two weeks, so Darvish should be able to get some length in this one.
MLB Hitter Prop Bets – Today’s Betting Picks
Manny Machado OVER 1.5 total bases (-110 DraftKings Sportsbook)
We are going to go right back to the well with Machado tonight against Zach Thompson of the Pirates. Thompson has posted a 10.80 ERA in limited action and has allowed right-handers to post 12 hits (one home run) in just 4 1/3 innings of work against them. Machado has started hot and is hitting righties well as he has six doubles against them to begin the season.
Aaron Judge OVER 1.5 total bases (+100 DraftKings and Caesars Sportsbook)
Judge gets to face Kris Bubic tonight who allowed 14 home runs to right-handers in 2021 and posted a 5.03 FIP against them. Meanwhile, Judge has mashed two dingers and ripped two doubles while posting a 1.153 OPS against lefties to begin 2022.
Trea Turner OVER 1.5 total bases (-110 DraftKings and Caesars Sportsbook)
Turner has posted a .333 average with two doubles and six hits across his first 18 at-bats against lefties and has always been sound against southpaws in his career. He will be facing the Tigers’ lefty, Tyler Alexander, who allowed right-handed hitters to post 13 bombs and a 5.23 FIP in 2021 and has given up one long ball to righties already this season.
