Yesterday was a wild day in Major League Baseball. The White Sox beat the Yankees by 10, the Red Sox walked off the Rangers in Boston, and Chris Sale and Blake Snell had the pitching duel of the century. There’s plenty of action again today, and I found my 2 best MLB player prop bets to lock in before the games start. Let’s break them down, while you can also find our'MLB picks for all of today’s big games.
Kutter Crawford (BOS) Over 2.5 Earned Runs (-135)
Kutter Crawford had a fantastic start to the season. He had a 0.66 ERA after his first 5 starts and went on to post a 1.65 ERA in the month of April. However, he started to go downhill pretty quickly. Crawford had a 5.14 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP in May and followed it up with a 4.44 ERA and 1.03 WHIP in June. He went into the all-star break allowing just 1 earned run in his final 3 starts and appeared to be improving, but the break ruined all his momentum. The right-hander is 1-2 with a 10.61 ERA with a 1.66 WHIP in 4 starts in the second half of the season. He allowed a .313 batting average with a ridiculous 13 barrels in those 4 outings. That has led to him allowing 5 or more earned runs in all 4 of his recent starts. Plus, he faced the Rangers in Texas earlier this month and was hit for 5 runs, 6 hits and 4 home runs in 5.1 innings. With a picture-perfect weather day in Boston, the ball should be flying and Crawford should get shelled.
