What are Player Prop Bets?

Player prop bets, often called “props,” focus on individual players' actions rather than the overall game result. They're popular in various sports, especially in baseball. In the MLB, these bets zoom in on specific player achievements such as hits, strikeouts, home runs, etc.

Nathan Eovaldi U 2.5 Earned Runs (-154) (Caesars) | Player Prop

Our first player prop for today's games is Nathan Eovaldi under 2.5 earned runs.

Eovaldi has gone under this line in 72% of games this season, averaging 2.2 earned runs per game.

Tonight, Eovaldi faces the Marlins, who score the 8th fewest runs per game in the MLB.

Furthermore, in every game Eovaldi has started and Texas has won this season, he has held opponents under this line.

Given these factors, we favor his under for tonight.

Tanner Bibee U 5.5 Hits Allowed (-157) (Caesars) | Player Prop

The next player prop catching our attention is Tanner Bibbe under 5.5 hits allowed.

Bibbe has gone under this line in eight of the last ten games and 71% of games all season.

Tonight, Bibee faces the Tigers, who record the 6th fewest hits per game in the MLB.

Furthermore, Bibee has already faced the Tigers three times this season, going under in all three.

Given these factors, we strongly favor the under for tonight.

Logan Gilbert O 5.5 Strikeouts (-135) (DraftKings) | Player Prop

The next player prop for tonight’s games is Logan Gilbert over 5.5 strikeouts.

Gilbert has exceeded this line in each of the last four games, including games against the Angels (13th), Orioles (11th), and Padres (1st), all of whom rank in the top half of the league for fewest strikeouts recorded per game.

Tonight, Gilbert faces the Red Sox, who recorded the third most strikeouts per game.

Earlier in the season, Gilbert had 8 strikeouts against the Red Sox.

Given these factors, we strongly favor the over for tonight.

Last but not least, it wouldn't be a Hall of Fame Bets blog post without utilizing the Parlay Optimizer to build a parlay for tonight’s slate. This parlay consists of these two legs from FanDuel:

This parlay has hit in both head-to-head games this season.

Over the last 20 games, this parlay has implied odds of -233, but with FanDuel offering it at +110 odds, the value presented makes this parlay too enticing to pass up.
