After sweeps on Friday and Sunday, we’ll look to build on that with a 9-game MLB slate on Monday. You can also find out our MLB picks for each of today’s big matchups, but for now, let’s dive into my best MLB player prop bet for Monday, June 17.
Bryce Harper (PHI) 1+ run scored (-130)
Line available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
We have to get unique backing Bryce Harper and the Phillies tonight. Finally back at home after underwhelming trips to Boston and Baltimore, Harper and the Phillies are ready to explode with runs at Citizens Bank Park with the wind blowing out.
The offense will face off against RHP Randy Vasquez and his near 6.00 xERA. His “earned runs” prop line is set at a whopping 3.5 with an “outs line” of 15.5. Meanwhile, Harper’s “hits + runs + rbi” line is set at 2.5. Pivoting to him to score with a loaded offense behind him and his threat to walk or homer anytime he steps up to the plate feels like the right bet.
