Another solid day for us yesterday going 1-1 on our props, but we hit a plus-money winner with the Mets cruising to a 1st Half cover in Game 1 of a doubleheader against the Pirates. Our loss was a bit of a bad beat with the Phillies taking a 4-2 lead into the 9th, only to allow a solo home run to Jacob Stallings of all people, dooming the -1.5 run line bet at +128. We’ll take the profitable evening and head back to the board. It’s a much smaller slate today in Major League Baseball, but still some value to be had. Check out Matt & I’s top MLB prop bets for September 8th below.

Top MLB Prop Bets for September 8th
Rolling the dice on this one with a Marlins team playing some really bad baseball, but Sandy Alcantara is throwing for them today and he’s been good for us all season. Alcantara hasn’t been great over the last few weeks. He got touched up in 2 of his last 3 starts against the Dodgers and Braves, but the Dodgers and Braves get to a lot of pitchers.
In 4 starts against the Phillies this season, Alcantara has 3 quality starts. Kyle Gibson was blasted in his last start by the Giants to the tune of 7 ER over 1.2 IP. We’re getting some value here with Alcantara because of the rough last weeks, but he’s still been one of the NL’s best pitchers all season. I’m happy and confident in adding this to our top MLB prop bets for September 8th.
