At RT Sports, there is an amazing daily fantasy pick’em game where you can choose different props for a chance to win money! Pick at least two props, select “more” or “less” on each prop, submit the picks, and you’re good to go! Below, you will find my favorite props/picks for today/tonight’s slate of games. You can choose just two props or choose them all and make it into one big parlay!
This Weeks Record: 0-4
Last Weeks Record: 12-8
Past Nine Weeks Record: 93-67-7
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. MORE than 6 Fantasy Points
Vlad has been one of the best hitters in baseball since the start of July, so getting him at six points rather than eight or nine feels like a steal here. As bad as the Blue Jays have been this year, Vlad is still a threat to have a big game on any given night or day. He faces Reds SP Carson Spiers tonight, who has given up four HR and 13 ER over his past three starts, totaling just 13.1 innings.
Juan Soto MORE than 0.5 Runs
Soto has scored 103 runs this season in 121 games. He is always a good bet on a runs prop because he has 34 HR this season and is able to drive himself in, but even more so because he has a .300 average and .432 OBP, so he is on base very often. Then, when you add in the fact that he hits in front of Aaron Judge who has 44 HR and 111 RBI this season, you have to feel confident that if Soto reaches base, he can come around to score.
Frankie Montas MORE than 4.5 Strikeouts
Montas hasn’t pitched all that well since being traded to the Brewers, although he did show signs of life in his most recent start. More importantly, even though his ratios look ugly, the strikeouts have been there since he arrived in Milwaukee. Over his past four starts, Montas has struck out at least five hitters, and he has struck out six or more hitters in three of the starts. I expect him to continue that success here tonight against an average Cardinals lineup.
Corbin Carroll MORE than 0.5 Runs
Carroll has had a down season by his standards, but lately, he has been better. He resembles the 2023 version of himself that saw him take home NL ROTY honors. Over the past 14 days, Carroll has 17 runs, hit five HR, driven in 11, and stolen a base. He has 21 steals this year and has enough speed to steal 35-40 in a season, so you should expect him to start swiping more bags as well. I used him last night on a fantasy points prop, and although he came up short, he did draw a walk and score a run. He is in another good matchup tonight against a RHP and the Marlins pitching staff, so look for Carroll to get on base and find a way to cross home plate.
