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.
Last Weeks Record: 12-6-1
This Weeks Record: 4-0
Elly De La Cruz MORE than 0.5 Runs
He is one of the streakiest hitters in MLB, but when he is good, there are few better players in the league. After a tough couple of weeks, Elly has gotten hot and has eight hits in his past three games, including five runs, two HR, two doubles, and four RBI. Surprisingly, he hasn’t stolen any bases during this stretch, but he does have 37 steals this season. His speed can lead to him turning a single into a triple and with him hitting so well right now, it’s very likely that he scores a run tonight.
Jose Altuve MORE than 6 Fantasy Points
Altuve has been hot lately, with five multi-hit games in his past nine, including two HR, two doubles, eight runs, and seven RBI. Tonight, he and the Astros have an excellent matchup at home against Rockies starter Austin Gomber and their terrible bullpen. Gomber has allowed 16 ER in his past 14.2 innings and allows a lot of long balls.
Aaron Judge MORE than 7 Fantasy Points
No one has been better than Aaron Judge since the start of May. Judge is batting .300 this season with a .423 OBP, 28 HR, 59 runs, and 70 RBI. He is filling up the stat sheet on what seems like a nightly basis, and I like his matchup tonight against LHP David Peterson. Peterson has been okay in his three starts this season, but he is walking too many batters, which will get him into trouble tonight against a disciplined Yankees lineup and their captain.
Ranger Suarez MORE than 5 Strikeouts
Suarez has been lights out this season and looks to be the front-runner for NL Cy Young through the season’s first three months. He is 10-1 with a 1.76 ERA and 0.89 WHIP. He strikes out more than a batter per inning and is in a good matchup tonight against the Tigers in a pitcher-friendly ballpark in Detroit. He has at least six strikeouts in four of his past six starts, and as long as he can go six-plus innings tonight, he should win us this prop.
