We’ve got a full slate in the MLB tonight. Therefore, I’ve added a handful of PrizePicks player props that you’ll want to consider for your PrizePicks entries.
Like every MLB PrizePicks article, we’ll give our four-player props you can use for a four-leg entry Power Play. A two-leg entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -137 for each prop. A three-leg entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -141. A four-leg entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -128 for each bet.
Getting -128 on the same prop is better than getting -137 or -141. Moving forward, we’ll stick to four-leg entries.
Remember that a Flex play can still win if one pick misses, but you’d get lower payouts.

The Mets will face off against Jesus Luzardo of the Marlins. He’s a lefty pitcher who has struggled badly against lefties to begin the year.
Luzardo has actually given up a .250 ISO and wOBA of .437 to his first 28 lefties this season. In addition, he’s allowed 29.4% of fly balls and 14.3% of walks to lefties.
Meanwhile, Brandon Nimmo has hit a .231 ISO and wOBA of .355 with just 14% of strikeouts against lefties this season. He’s a lefty who hasn’t walked much but has the potential to walk and put the ball in play to make things happen. As the lead-off hitter, he’s in line for hits and runs.
Max Fried Less Than 5 Pitcher Strikeouts
Max Fried has just 20.4% of strikeouts this season. That’s well below last year’s average of 24.9%. While he’s pitched well, holding his first 181 batters to a .086 ISO and wOBA of .251, he still can’t seem to put away batters.
On the other hand, while the Padres have struggled to hit for power against lefties, San Diego hasn’t struggled to put the ball in play. The Padres’ projected lineup has only struck out 16.2% of the time. Ultimately, two batters have struck out more than 22% of the time against lefties in this projected San Diego lineup.
Manny Machado is one of two hitters with a high strikeout rate. But he’s also among the few hitters hitting for a high ISO against lefties.
Therefore, we’ll ride the Under for Max Fried’s strikeouts.
William Contreras More Than 1.5 Total Bases
This season, William Contreras has slugged a .206 ISO and wOBA of .444 against his first 161 righties. He’s also struck out only 16.8% of the time and has hit 62.3% of hard contact with a 12.3% barrel percentage.
He’ll take on Hunter Brown of the Astros, who has allowed a .201 ISO and wOBA of .418 to his first 158 batters faced. Righties have hit a .169 ISO and wOBA of .452 against Brown.
Brown has also added just 20.6% of strikeouts against righties and has allowed nearly 27% of line drives.
Shohei Ohtani Over 1.5 Total Bases
Shohei Ohtani has smashed a .414 ISO and wOBA of .548 against his first 117 righties. These stats are unheard of, and it’s a reasonable sample size at this point.
Ohtani has struck out only 18.8% of the time against righties and has hit more fly balls and line drives than ground balls against righties this season.
Meanwhile, he’s in line to face Frankie Montas of the Reds. Montas has allowed a .185 ISO and wOBA of .353 to his first 74 lefties. He’s also added just 14.9% of strikeouts against lefties this season.
Back Ohtani to record at least two total bases for tonight’s game against Cincinnati.
