Best MLB Prop Bets Today: Rays vs. Phillies (6:40 PM, EST)

Cristopher Sanchez Over 6.5 Strikeouts (+128)

Late in the season, Sanchez has become a strikeout machine. In three straight starts, he’s recorded at least seven strikeouts. That includes a start last month in which he notched eight strikeouts in just 5.2 innings. While his strikeout rate could dip at any moment, keep in mind the Rays rank sixth in the majors in strikeouts. That’s a good indication that Sanchez will continue to miss bats and end up with a high strikeout total.

Best MLB Prop Bets Today: Marlins vs. Pirates (6:40 PM, EST)

Paul Skenes Under 4.5 Hits (+110) at bet365

Skenes is usually a pitcher to target with strikeouts, but the most value for him in Monday’s game is under 4.5 hits. He’s held opposing lineups to four hits or less in three of his last four starts, which is a good sign that the light-hitting Marlins will have difficulty getting over that threshold. Granted, Miami has scored 19 total runs over the past two games. But that’s not likely to continue, especially since nobody in Miami’s lineup has ever faced Skenes before. Plus, the Pirates are watching his innings count, which means Skenes won’t go beyond five or six innings, making it a little easier to limit the Marlins to four hits or less.

Best MLB Prop Bets Today: Royals vs. Yankees (7:05 PM, EST)

Salvador Perez Over 1.5 Total Bases (+125) at bet365

Perez has slumped a little late in the season, but there is still value in targeting him on Monday. He has a favorable matchup against lefty Carlos Rodon. In his career, Perez is 10 for 23 (.435) with three extra-base hits against Rodon. He’s also batting over .300 with a slugging percentage of .500 against lefties this year. Facing Rodon could be exactly what Perez needs to break out of his slump, so we’ll take a chance on him on Monday.

Juan Soto Over 1.5 Total Bases (+135) at bet365

Soto has had back-to-back hitless games, but that’s not enough to dissuade us from targeting him on Monday. Against Kansas City starter Brady Singer, Soto is 2 for 5 with a double. Also, Soto has still managed to go over 1.5 total bases in four of his last nine games despite not being at his best. With a favorable matchup, he’s more than capable of coming up with multiple hits or an extra-base hit. Given the light schedule on Monday, we’re comfortable going with a familiar face like Soto.

Best MLB Prop Bets Today: Cubs vs. Dodgers (10:10 PM, EST)

Freddie Freeman Over 0.5 Walks (+130) at bet365

Freeman is another hitter with a favorable matchup on Monday. He and the Dodgers will face Kyle Hendricks, who is having a dreadful season. In his career against Hendricks, Freeman is 5 for 14 (.357)with four walks. Surely, Hendricks will know that Freeman is a hitter he’s struggled to get out in the past, making him more likely to pitch around the veteran first baseman. Freeman is also a disciplined hitter who is willing to be patient, as he’s taken a walk in four of his last six games. As for Hendricks, he’s covered 11.1 innings across his last three starts, walking six batters. That’s just one of many problems he’s had this season, which makes us think Freeman is going to draw at least one walk in this game.
