⭐ Tampa Bay ML (-125) at BetMGM

Taj Bradley is on the mound for Tampa Bay in this Rays vs. Twins matchup, making his third MLB start since returning to the bigs. He had an excellent first start back against Cleveland Guardians, allowing just one earned run, but did struggle against Seattle, surrendering four earned runs.

Still, Bradley is the better option in the pitching matchup as the Twins send out Dallas Keuchel. He’s allowed 13 earned runs over his last five starts, including seven over his last two. We like Tampa Bay ML (-125) at BetMGM.

The Twins strikeout more than ten times per game, which leads the league, and Bradley has some solid strikeout stuff, posting an 11.6 K/9 with 111 over 86 innings. 

The matchup can potentially be volatile, so for our best MLB bets today, we’ll take the Rays moneyline.

⭐ Drew Rom Over 3.5 Strikeouts (+116) at FanDuel

Starting for St. Louis in this Orioles vs. Cardinals prediction is Drew Rom, who was previously with Baltimore. This is his fifth major league start, and it hasn’t gone well for the 23-year-old, who’s 0-2 with a 7.79 ERA and just 11 strikeouts through 17 ⅓ innings. 

However, 10 of his 11 strikeouts have come over his last two starts, so he’s starting to ramp things up. We like Rom Over 3.5 Strikeouts (+116) at FanDuel.

Against the Orioles, he will take on a tough lineup, but they also strike out well over eight times per game.

Getting plus money on the over for his strikeouts at just 3.5 is a great MLB player prop value.

For our best MLB bets today, take the over on Rom’s strikeouts.

⭐ Jameson Taillon Over 2.5 Earned Runs (-161) at Caesars

After dropping the second game of this three-game series, Chicago is sending Jameson Taillon to the mound as we consider our Rockies vs. Cubs prediction. 

The Rockies have scored ten runs in two games against Cubs starters, and Taillon has gotten beaten up this season, posting a 5.27 ERA through 26 starts and allowing 12 runs over his last five starts.

Playing in Colorado, we’re targeting his earned runs MLB player prop and taking Taillon Over 2.5 Earned Runs (-161) at Caesars.

The line at Caesars Sportsbook is 2.5 runs, and while the value on the over isn’t great at -161, the Rockies have a decent lineup and, as we all know, balls tend to fly off bats in Colorado, especially against a guy who’s allowed seven home runs in his last five starts, including three in one game. 

For our best MLB bets today, take the over on Taillon’s earned runs.

⭐ Cody Bellinger Over 1.5 Total Bases (-110) at DraftKings

We’re taking another crack at not only a Rockies vs. Cubs prediction but the same player we analyzed in our best bets analysis yesterday.

We already tackled an MLB player prop for a Cubs player, but we’re heading back to another here with Cody Bellinger.

Yesterday, we suggested Bellinger go over on 1.5 total bases, and he fell short, accruing just one. We're going back with Bellinger Over 1.5 Total Bases (-110) at DraftKings.

Here, though, he takes on Ty Blach, a lefty, which Bellinger, who’s also lefty, tends to perform well against. 

In 164 plate appearances, Bellinger is hitting .347 against lefties. 

After a down game yesterday that included the hit but also a strikeout and grounding into a double play, look for Bellinger to rebound here for our best MLB bets today.
