MLB player prop bets for Saturday, July 23

Anthony Rizzo over 1.5 total bases vs. Orioles (+125)

Rizzo faces Jordan Lyles on the hill today and has a career .286 batting average against the righty. Rizzo also fares much better against right-handed pitchers with a .232 batting average versus a .207 mark against lefties. Paired with a New York Yankees hitting lineup firing on all cylinders, Rizzo should be in for a successful day at the plate Saturday.

Mookie Betts over 0.5 hits vs. Giants (-270)

The Dodgers are up 2-0 in their series with the Giants and it’s coincided with an impressive display from Betts, including a three-RBI performance in the opener. The Dodgers All-Star now faces Alex Wood Saturday with a career .385 batting average against the lefty. Betts is riding a four-game streak with a hit and after Saturday’s matchup make it five straight games.

Marcus Stroman under 5.5 strikeouts vs. Phillies (-175)

Stroman has faced the Philadelphia Phillies in 10 appearances over his career and has averaged 4.2 strikeouts throughout that time span. The righty only averages 4.4 innings against the Phillies and struck out five batters in through five innings in his last game. It’s hard to bet against the trends here, and we’re sticking with the under for Saturday’s matchup.
