Top 3 Pitcher Prop Picks

1. Hunter Brown Over 6.5 Strikeouts (-154) Astros vs Angels 9:38 P.M. ET

Brown is absolutely dealing right now and may warrant an MLB bet on a Cy Young award at this point. He had 12 strikeouts his last time out against Minnesota and has gone over this number in eight of his last nine starts. Need anything else to consider this among the best MLB player props today? How about the fact that no team in the American League has whiffed more than the Angels.

Hunter Brown, Wicked Knuckle Curves. 🤢

Bet on Hunter Brown Over 6.5 Strikeouts (-154)

2. Nick Pivetta Under 2.5 Earned Runs (-164) Royals vs Padres 9:40 P.M. ET

Pivetta is enjoying his finest season in the bigs and much of it has come via a dominant run at home. He is 5-0 with a 2.40 ERA at Petco Park, and gets to face the soft-hitting Royals in this one. In compiling our MLB expert picks today we had to include Pivetta, who also owns a 1.50 ERA in three interleague starts this year.

Even in his first year in a #Padres uniform, Nick Pivetta is already making a big impact.@Padres | #ForTheFaithful

3. Hunter Dobbins Under 5.5 Hits Allowed (-157) Red Sox vs Giants 10:15 p.m. ET

Dobbins is not the head-liner here. That would be Rafael Devers going up against the team that traded him away earlier this week and the MLB latest news offerings will be filled with hot takes on this matchup. But Dobbins will factor into things and we like the rookie to keep the Giants under control. He’s allowed only 10 hits in 16 innings this month and San Francisco has yet to get going in the Devers era, scoring exactly two runs in each of three games since the trade.
